the program does not matter how long it runs. it might just be the windows computer needing to be rebooted,
the win98 systems needed rebooted daily.
the winXp systems need rebooted every 2 days.
if you are using your system as a jukebox like i do then you should use task scheduler to start and stop monkey and if you want to change playlists by the script peke made. and then you need to set up tasks to restart the computer after you have shut off mediamonkey, the task scheduler requires it be set up in minute units so this will mean you have to stop monkey for one full minute before you restart the computer, but that will keep your system working.
i use win98 and keep it running daily but i do the restarts twice a day and run maintance programs several times in between restarts and closing monkey, this is needed on win98 systems.
but doing that can let you have monkey run a long time,
even doing that win98 seems to have lots of bugs with restarting but it can be done.
i've been able to keep it going for a week with out having to do any defragmenting and or several hours of off time. but only a week on 98.
windows xp is good at the restarting stuff.
also this is where a ram cleaner would come in use. if you can find one that works on xp that runs automaticly that would be best. just remember it is not meant to be used instead of the restarts, but with the restarting. as it would just clear the ram in to the swap file, after too long of that on xp they seem to remove a file from the swap file that is needed to run certain things on xp which then causes you to need a restart, so use both of them.
