How does system standby affect my programs?

[ManBearPig]

If i have two accounts, and switch from one (which has a p2p program on) to the other, and the other goes in standby, would the p2p program stop its connection and not dl, or what?

thanks...hope thats clear.

That's not standby, that's user switching.

And no, all programs continue to run.

if the 2nd account goes into standby (where the computer is silent and monitor is off), then it will be disconnected from the net. the link light on your modem should turn off also, indicating no net connection.
