self reastarting .pps when idle

One of the features of Kiosk mode is to start again after 5 minutes. The
problem is that this feature seems to work differently on different
machines and with different versions. One version eliminated this
entirely and more recent versions are inconsistent, some users report
restarting after 5 minutes, some at various longer time intervals, and
some not at all. The good news is that I think it is consistent for each
machine, so if it works for your machine, it should continue to work.

If you do put it in Kiosk mode, all navigation must be done either
through automatic timings or by clicking on hyperlinks/buttons.

If you want to try, Go to the Slide Show menu and choose Set Up Show.
Check the box for "Browsed at a Kiosk."
