Internet Explorer page reloader

I'd like an utility (an Internet Explorer plugin) which is able to
prevent session inactivity timeout, reloading automatically the page
(or simulating some kind of interaction) after a determined amount of
time. Any suggestions?

Just use Netstat...

Start
Run
netstat -a XXX

XXX = time interval in seconds that you want netstat to do its thing.

That will keep your *connection* alive but I now see that you want to
simulate activity on a particulat page. Sorry...

I don't have any specific recommendations, but some freeware IE
alternatives, such ar Crazy Browser, which uses the IE core, has an
auto-refresh option which you can set to X number of seconds/minutes.
It's like go up to View | Refresh, or hitting the F5 key, but without
having to manually do same. Some other browsers can do similar.

Can you elaborate on the Netstat thing? It looks like something I might need
but I never heard of it.

thanks, P

Nothing to expand on, netstat comes with Windows. Just follow the
example I gave and it will do its thing.

I don't know exactly what netstat's "thing" is, I have never heard of it.
What time components would be applicable to the XXX?

I need something to keep me online better when my dial-up ISP times me out
during high traffic times when idleness may affect the timeouts.
I tried an application called 42connect or something that was supposed to
keep a connection with your homepage open by dialing automatically. It did
nothing but look good.

Thanks, P
 
Phluge;

Netstat is a command-line utility included in every (NT-based) version
of MS Windoze. I dunno about earlier versions. So, if you have XP or
2000, go to your command prompt and type:

netstat /?

This will bring up the command and its parameteres. XXX is in seconds, btw.

I can run it on my XP. Can anyone suggest the best way to use it with regard
to the needs I stated in a previous post here?

For example what is my default XXX? How would I determine the optimal
setting in seconds for effecting the timeouts not to occur?

Thanks, P

Be adventurous...try some. If you get bumped, set a lower value.

If you want a precise number, call your ISP and ask them how long your
connection can be static before they pull the plug.
