Summary
I am using a 56k modem on a Compaq 1.1Ghz computer with CompuServe as my internet provider. Over time I was becoming increasingly annoyed at getting cut off the internet at any sign of idleness. Finally I decided to try out Rasputin 1.6,a simple pinging devise in the hope that it would help aleviate the problem. The trial period lasted 30 days. I lost track of the time and on the 31st day was jolted back to reality when CompuServe started cutting me off again. Rasputin had done it's job well. At that point it was very clear to me that I would need to buy the program....right away! Only $10 for a program that worked flawlessly was a STEAL!
IT didnt' work. End of story.

Developer’s Description

By Basta Computing

Keep your Internet connection alive and kicking.

Many Internet Service Providers (ISP) disconnect your computer when they detect a lack of Internet access for a certain amount of time. You must then reconnect your computer in order to continue your Internet session. Rasputin simulates network activity to help keep your Internet connection alive. Rasputin is very simple to use and works discreetly in the background.
