Jim: FOX has been particularly slow every morning this week, especially on confirms. But then again, on various threads people have been complaining of slow fills and access to nearly every non-full service broker. After 10 a.m. the trading window has been working fine. Only intermittently do I get slow quotes. But that seems to be correlated to slowness with my ISP (AOL) which might either be due to noise on the phone line or internet traffic. I've been blazing through my quote list, which has about 80 securities on it. I continue to delete jcomm, quote, and fcs files (as discussed before) probably several times a day as a preventative measure. I wish I could help you, amigo.

"Is Fox hanging up on you again today, or is it just me?" Fox is very slow every morning for about the first 15 mins.This started just a few weeks ago but I have heard the same story from other brokers.I sure would like to figure it out. David
