I am on Windows and am running an anti virus program. But I was running the same programs on Windows before without this problem.

Hi

My copy of PostgreSQL version 8.3 has decided not to receive a
connection after an idle time measured in hours.

Odd.

It acceptes the connection one I stop the server and then restart. At
this point, it always asks for the password.

Here is the log of the event -

FATAL:  could not reattach to shared memory (key=1804,
addr=01700000): 487 2009-10-29 00:19:20 PDT WARNING:  worker took too
long to start; cancelled

That "worker took too long..." message is from autovaccuum, so I'm not
sure it's directly responsible. The "could not reattach to shared
memory" error looks familiar though.

Are you:
1. On Windows?
2. Running some sort of anti-virus?

Also, you might want to read this news item from September:

Are you already on 8.3.8?
