Mouse Mover download stops screensavers from kicking in and VPNs from timing out

At work, which is from home a majority of the time lately, I find myself working in several different environments at a time. I am always on a VPN and remoted into at least one environment, and usually two or three.

I found myself getting annoyed because the timeout on the VPN connection, and the desktop screen savers timer, was only a minute or two. I was logging in 20 to 30 times a day because I also work on several computers at a time and was not always working on the same computer. I spend 5 minutes on one and then jump back to the other.

The solution to my problem is found in this download. Mouse Mover is a small application that simulates mouse movements and keyboard strokes. The application is self explanatory when run. You have the option of setting the mouse movement time intervals and starting and stopping the timer.

I simply copy it to the desktop I need to stay live and start it up.
