: Long time user. I seem to be having problems in past few weeks getting good operation from Yahoo Historical retrieve. A download will progress through some of the 90+ symbols and then many times will stop. Often, upon a retry, it will not even process the first symbol. On Yahoo (non-historical), download is very quick and consistent. Worked fine for a long time. Only difference in my system that I can think of is a switch to cable modem from bi-directional satellite several weeks ago. Also now using cable modem-router. It almost seems that with the cable modem and historical Yahoo, that my end is responding and/or requesting at too fast a rate. (Now thats a switch; where a user is saying their end is too fast) Any ideas?

Hi Barry,

I'm not sure... What does the "Status" line say when it stops? You can
e-mail me your "intlog2.txt" file after a bad retrieve, and I can take a
look.

Thanks,
Mark
