why not just leave yourself logged on 24 hours a day. Even when you are not playing just leave yourself logged in

this is probably one of the smartest things to do. Only downside is that your computer is always up and running and exploitable and if something did get on there, all they would have to do is reset the comp in the middle of the night.

When I've tried logging on to my FTP account from my laptop while logged in on my desktop, something pops up on my desktop saying "Someone is logging on your account on a different computer, do you want to disconnect or deny them access?" and if you don't select anything within 30 seconds, you automatically get disconnected.

So, this isn't a helpful option for security purposes unless they change the default action from "disconnect" to "deny" when you aren't at your computer.
