If you're like me, you have a love/hate relationship with "the box." Something is always going wrong with the $*%^&&*^&! things.

The latest; my ISP kicks me off either whenever they feel like it or after a certain amount of time of inactivity (which is two seconds less than it takes me to go to the bathroom).

So, I asked AumHa.net, which is to computer types as this forum is to writers.

They solved the "problem" in a New York (pardon me, Joe. No offense, I happen to like the City) second. Check it out:

Here's the neat part; IT'S FREE.

That's a good idea for a page.

On the other hand, you could probably just leave Outlook Express running, and tell it to check for new emails every XX minutes. If you don't have a real email address, you can get one for free from www.hotpop.com (http://www.hotpop.com)

That will give you more control - you can choose the time interval accordingly.
