A quick word of warning to those of you about to get the updated version: There is a new set of problems you buy into when you get the new version. Most significantly, you will find the Fox+ program eating all of your system resources. Some have reported the "quotes.dat" file growing to nearly a gigabyte. For me, I have to shut down the program every half hour or so and restart it because it slows down so badly. (On some occasions, it takes a full minute from the time I push the "quote" button for the program to BEGIN to retrieve the quotes). Some say the updated version is great; I'm not so happy with it. In fact, I'm leaving Spartan because of problems with Fox+ and the brokerage. Good luck to all of you! jim
