Good catch!  I have noticed the same; I rarely get kicked out while in
a file download.  (Well, almost.  If downloading an entire Linux
distribution, for instance, some 100MB, overnight, I may need to
reconnect 3-4 times.  The annoying thing is - that means 3-4
days.. :-/)

They'd better fix this REAL SOON NOW, or I'll call my congressman.
