    Go to System Settings > Brightness and Lock and set the time out duration or turn off lock

    BTW, the Downthemall! addon for firefox can resume downloading even after you reboot. To restart a download open Firefox, go to Tools > Downthemall!Tools and click manager

    Thanks Moneybrain. I've gone back to Firefox after Chrome and Opera. That sounds like a useful addon.
