Default Sleep Mode

It seems when I am away from my computer and it goes idle it goes into sleep
mode. I don't mind this, however, it shows me as logged off of AIM until I
return from sleep mode. Is there a way to either avoid sleep mode or have it
set so that I still remain on AIM when I am in sleep mode?

Thanks,
Ashley

Hello,

prevent it from going to sleep mode: Click Start -> Control Panel -> type
"Power Options" into the search box in the upper right, and click the shown
link after search. Click "Change when the computer sleeps" in the left ->
Put the computer to sleep: Never .

Hope this will help you.
Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo
