: : : Thanks for the response.
: : : I turned off the firewall and then turned it on again and that seems to have fixed the problem.

: : : Thanks again.

: : Ok, something is not right. I thought it got fixed, but I am having the same issue again. I have turned off the firewall now just to be sure. The errors I see are-
: : WinInet Error Code:12002 Operation timed out.
: : WSAE 12002

: : I did update to the latest version of the libraries. I can get to finance.yahoo.com through my browser.

: : Thanks.

: Hi Av,

: I'm not sure of the problem, but it sounds to me like it is related to the firewall since turning it off/on earlier fixed the problem. What firewall software are you using? I would suggest completely exiting the firewall, and then re-booting. Make sure it isn't running when you re-start, and then try and retrieve. As I mentioned, some of these firewall programs can be difficult to turn off, as they are quite persistent.

Mark,
I rebooted with firewall off, as suggested. It hasn't helped much. It can't be the firewall since data is being retrieved. Its just real slow and it is timing out every so often. Normally, the counter on the message box that displays progress shows say 80/second or so. Now it is more like between 2/second to say 10/second. All other internet activity is fine...

Thanks,

Anil.
