What type of firewall are you using ?

Ps:I have used in One of my Computers Running Win 98SE the Following Program
"Stay Alive " it is a Fantastic Program But I do not Used with WinXP or with a DSL Connection

Finally :If your Firewall not to Blame
Then ask your ISP for a new Modem
Bon Courage..

Try this it may help. Click start then control panel right click on display and then click open choose screen saver then power settings make sure sure everthing is set to never. This may solve your problem. The computer want go into stand by on its on.
Hope this helps.
