Is your computer connected to the Internet via dial-up networking?
Have you ever been disconnected by your ISP while you were online but not active for 10 or 15 minutes?
If your answer is yes, you might find this program useful.
It is a fact that many ISPs disconnect their clients dial-up connections if they are not active for a certain period of time. Keep It Alive keeps your dial-up connection alive by trying to get a web page from a web site in every a few minutes.

The new version of Keep It Alive is so easy to use that you will never need to touch it again once you installed it. Yet it has various options for experienced users.

Features

It will detect whether you are connected to the Internet or not . Once you are connected it will automatically start taking its "keeping alive" actions - trying to get a web page every several minutes, and stop actions when you disconnect.
The program only appears as a small icon in the Windows system tray and does its keeping alive job in the background or waits there for your Internet connection..
Point your mouse to the tray icon, you will see your connection status.
Double click the icon, the main window will show. See screen shot.
Right click your mouse on the icon, a popup menu will show which allows you to see log results, change settings...
