[tor-talk] does TOR do idle disconnect?

Hi there,

I start TOR using the Vidalia GUI.

When I came back from lunch I saw, Firefox was disconnected from TOR.

Vidalia still was running and seemed to be connected to TOR, the onion
was green.

The anon test said I was not connected with TOR and it shows my real IP.

This makes me wonder, is there some kind of idle mechanism that
disconnects you from TOR?

Thanks you
