Automatic Shut Down

How can I prevent Vista from automatically shutting down after a given period of time? I like to listen to online audio all day, but not necessarity while working on the computer. Any help would be most appreciated.

the button push is not the same as when you start in the morning, it hibernation. If it is you change that behavior in start>control panels>power control panel>chang plan setting. change when its put to sleep. If you want you can turn hibernation off

that should help
