How to keep my Mac from sleeping?

I leave my computer for two minutes and it falls asleep! So annoying! How do I get it to stop? I tried System Preferences>Energy Saver and set it to 3 hours and it still falls asleep in two minutes! Help! This is getting on my nerves if you couldn't already tell :)

    This may be your screen saver, NOT your MAC going to sleep

    Try setting your screen saver to a longer time.

    The Mac is telling you something.

    Throw the damn thing away and get a pc

    (Won't look at this question again because I know stubborn macs lovers will hate on me ;P)
