I just upgraded to 10.2.3 (from 10.1). A couple of things are driving me nuts...
1. Internet Connect keeps asking me if I want to stay connected. It will automatically disconnect if I'm idle for 5 minutes. Where can I turn this off?
2. Can I still change the icons of folders such as "Music" and "Sites"? If so, how? I can change generic folders icons successfully, but not Mac created ones.
3. Is there any way to just restart without having to confirm that you want to restart?
Thanks for any assistance.

The restart thing is annoying, and I haven't heard of any workaround.

1) - Go into the System Prefs - > Network. With Internal Modem listed under "Show", click on the PPP tab and then the PPP Options button. Either UNcheck the "Disconnect if Idle..." box, or change the time.
2) - Don't know of a way to change these icons.
3) - The $7 shareware app, FruitMenu will allow you to restart or shutdown without the nags. (among many other great things)

Hold down the option key while selecting Restart and it will bypass the dialog box.

You can use CandyBar to change those icons.
