: I just downloaded your new version 4.4, and then, after installing it, tried to get fund updates using Yahoo Historical. The decimal point is wrong on the downloaded data. Janus Twenty went from 80.95 to 8,053.000 overnight.
: I know Yahoo was down for a while - is this there problem, or version 4.4?

Hi Robert,
This is a problem with Yahoo. You can see by visiting:

http://chart.yahoo.com/t?a=10&b=24&c=99&d=01&e=25&f=00&g=d&s=javlx&y=0&z=javlx

It seemed to be fixed for a while on the few I was looking at, but
the problem is back. I've only seen the problem on mutual funds, not
stocks. I've updated the status under "Help/FM on the Web/Check for Updates...".
You can look there to see what servers are working.

Unfortunately, this problem is out of our control. I do know Yahoo knows
of the problem and is working to resolve it.

Thanks,
Mark
