<pre>I am just trying to get an idea of what to expect from using a local isp to
access internet based mkt data and the ramifications of being online all
day. i dont want to have to do some "thing" every 15 or 20 mins just to keep
my connection alive.</pre>

<p><br>Try using netscape and setting the preference to check e-mail every
two minutes. That should keep the connection live.
<p>Good Luck

The easier solution is to switch to an ISP that doesn't time you out.
