u sure its real time? I used to use a real time java applet someone provided and discovered the initial 'load' was real time. if you just left it on the page running it kept displaying the quotes as of that point in time when it was loaded....

Allow me to join the 'I LOVE STREAMER' chorus. However, two problems remains with it. Not infrequently, a stock quote freezes up for some reason, rather than continuing to update real time. Second, the default stock list that pops up when I first invoke Streamer varies. Often it is a very outdated list of my Portfolio. Sometimes it is a shorter list. And sometimes no stocks appear initially at all. Anyone else notice these problems?

I also notice that, after I update my Portfolio by clicking Go, the quotes listed in my Portfolio differ from those listed in my Streamer. I would expect my Portfolio quotes to be updated in real time at that point.
