every 15 mins. my connections to aol and verizon.net (my e mail accounts) disconnects and i get a window that says session has ended.... i have to put my name and pw in all over again. i realize this is a security issue but it is annoying.. even if i just used my e mail account a minute before it shuts down.. again... since both e mail accounts are on line at the same time it cannot be caused by them it is a firefox problem

any help is appreciated. thanks in advance.
