I have also noticed this behaviour.  I haven't been able to figure out
what is causing the enable_donkey to be set to false.  It isn't an
issue of killing ml from the shell, as I haven't had to resort to
that.  Then again, I haven't init 6'd my box to go through the system
shutdown for awhile either :)

Since disabling the overnet support, I haven't noticed the problem of
mldonkey not connecting to servers after a few hours as has been
reported by a few on the ed2k board. I didn't start noticing this
problem until the CVS version of 10/05

SIGKILL is the default signal.
