Hi JD,

The problem is more likely due to the new PC, rather than 4.7 vs. 6.4 version
of Fund Manager. Both versions access the internet in the same manner (winsock).

FM is running fine under Windows XP. I haven't seen that error code much
before. Are you using a proxy server? Have you double checked your settings
under "Options/Internet Settings..."?

I would recommend searching Microsoft's site for this error code, and seeing
if they have any knowledge base articles on what could cause this. Good
search words would be "winsock error 10050".

Thanks,
Mark

: : I got a new PC and loaded v 6 onto it. It is running windows xp. I haven't gotten rid of my old PC yet and I have no trouble connecting using v4.
: Does this help? Do I need to do a reinstall of v6 or download the latest version? Have you been having trouble with xp?

: Hi JD,

: : I'm not sure what could cause this. Did this coincide with installing 6.x?

: : : OK the error number is 10050 which indicates the program found a dead network connection. I am not on a network, but a 56K dial up. I can't find the setting that is telling the program I am on a network.

: : : : Please check the exact error number, and then refer to:
