Windows Internet Connections

[DAMK]

Hi,
I am using Windows XP Professional Edition. Sometimes I
want to download big things which take a while, but then
some else has to use the pc. I can't switch user because
the drop the connection. Any one know how to set windows
to keep the internet connection after log off?

HELP
Thanks

Use fast user switching (I believe Win-L is the shortcut) instead of logging
off. This will keep internet connections open (Instant Messaging, Kazaa, FTP
downloads, etc).
