52273 2002-06-03 12:33:00 no it won't overheat. the odds are you will proberly get kicked of the net at least once. a reboot every now and then wouldn't hurt either. also if you have jetsteam/cable you may runn out of hardrive space first;-)

if you plan to leave it on for long period if time unattended a UPS would be a good idea.

52274 2002-06-03 22:36:00 Mine is on 24/7 it's an old PC, and i am file sharing, and running a web server on cable. I have no special cooling, just a standard cpu fan, and the PS fan

People trying to use the webserver as a proxy is a problem, running out of HD space is a problem, over heating???? No worrys!

You should be fine too.

I do turn the monitor off at the switch when i leave the office as Win98SE power management and my combination of hardware don't get on too well.
