My experience was on a W2K box.

if I attach with PCanywhere index server keeps right on chugging. I don't
recall if it does that on my w2k desktop but I believe it does as I shut it
down because it was slowing me down (back when I started using w2K).

Could this be an XP feature?

     Older hardware doesn't matter.  If there is any user activity it stops.
It won't restart until there is a period of inactivity and will stop as
soon as there is any.
