It actually happens within minutes or seconds of me doing something. I have a hunch it may be some kind of security feature on my end I am ignorant of, since it never happens at home, only at work, where I expect there are huge safety features in place, given our type of business.

Well, the CIA has been known to get a bit weird about security from time to time.

Maybe you should have your office swept?

At my job we have our offices swept by officers all the time with no negative impact on RRF :twisted:

I need you to do me a favor.
After you log in, go to http://www.whatismyip.com and write down the IP address you see there.
After you get logged off, go there again and write down the IP again, then PM me both IPs.
Thanks.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Perhaps Gil will help us understand the technical reason for the disconnection. It sounds as if the connection is being timed out particularly as it seems so frequent for some.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

It probably is a safeguard put into place by your firm's IT Department. I never use my work PC to log onto the RRF.

I had a feeling it was a dynamic IP address issue. I'll try that tomorrow Gil.
