Will programs still download if my computer is in sleep?

[0nefatality]

I went into system preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver. And then I changed the "Start Screen Saver" option to never, but it said for the others after 10min " Your computer will sleep before your screen saver activates.

So will my computer stop downloading a file from the internet if i just leave my computer on over night?

Cheers =)

PS: How do i change my signature?

If a file is downloading, it shouldn't sleep automatically, since there is some activity.

You can change the sleep setting in System Preferences > Energy Saver.

PS: Change your sig here

The person above posted an option that works, but my favorite option for this is an app called "Caffeine". it lets you easily switch the sleep mode on and off. I'd snag that.
