Sultan - I was interested in your response. I also run the Ameritrade Command Center under ZAPro. Occasionally, I experience delay with news feed or streaming quotes and have to take ZA off for awhile. I still have the MSFT firewall, pest patrol and NAV running. The delays have gotten, it seems, less over time, but if I am at a time where I want to make sure every quote is as quick as possible, I do take it off. I have placed applicable exceptions in the privacy tab and perhaps this has helped but I'm not sure.

You're taxing your machine far more than I do, that's for sure. I've always been able to do everything I needed done. But it was the seemingly simple stuff that ZA interfered with. I have 2 machines and they share a black printer and a color printer. ZA wouldn't let me print until I shut it down. I feed QT on one machine from IB and from Money.net on the other (for redundancy). ZA wouldn't let Money.net connect. Since I run my cable connection through one machine for both of them, I had to disable ZA on both machines before it would allow the connection. Many other "little" things like this that finally stretched my tolerate envelope beyond the limit. I'd go back to it if I could figure out how to tame it.
