I have noticed lately that when I go to leave my desk and I click the windows button and the ” L ” button that returns my computer to my log in screen, everytime I come back to it and log on my messenger has signed me out.
Anyone have any idea why its doing this ? Is it my computer or simply yahoo messenger?
Help!!!!
Signed out without notice.

EDIT: This is more suitable to the Yahoo! Messenger Forum. Since it is client specific. Computer Room is for general computer questions. Topic Moved.
Unfortunately I have never had the luxury of having an office job so I am not certain about this. When you go back to your computer’s login screen, are you required to sign back in to your PC? I am thinking that when you do this, it automatically disconnects the computer from the internet as it goes into stand by. I will gladly accept a second opinion on this one though. In addition, if this is what you are in fact referring to, it is a windows feature that does this for security/privacy reasons. Your messenger is running on your “user profile.” By returning to the login screen for windows, you are basically logging off the PC account so that it is possible for a different user to log in, in which case, different accounts would be involved as far as the Windows Program is concerned. Its just a normal built-in safety feature for account privacy is all.
Thank you Doc, What you said made absolutely perfect sense. I just didn’t know if my computer was mal-functioning or if it was supposed to do this..
I appreciate the explaination and help.
