CNBC reported a little while ago that INTC has traded more than 98 million shares today as shown at the NASDAQ high tech center. Datek is showing only about 73 million. Why the huge disparity?

Yes, that's exactly what I've found. So you are able to reproduce this irregularity?

Mr. Shep, this is clearly not the fault of my browser. This happens even if I restart the browser and log in. And since the partial password does NOT work when attempting to place an order, the irregularity/inconsistency is with the Datek site.

It appears that for the best security, Datek should limit passwords to 8 characters, and suggest that numerics be part of those eight characters. Does this sound on track?
