I have to admit that FOX has gotten better for me the last month or so.Fast fills even on fast days.

Today did a DELL trade at opening and it did take a few mins instead of seconds but look at the volume on it.

A few months ago the first 10 mins of the day was getting overloaded and they said they were adding servers.It looks like they did.

P.S. Knock on wood :-)

I just downloaded FOX 1.5.2 from their web site onto a new computer. This was the fastest, cleanest installation that I have ever had with FOX and the first time that I didn't have call tech support to install.

I have been having no problems at all with FOX.

However I do frequent housekeeping with the "garbage" files. I have placed the old Windows 3.x Filemanager (Winfile in the windows directory) on my Win98 taskbar and it opens each time to Fox+'s data subdirectory. Then I quickly delete the 2 jcomm*.* and 2 quote*.* files and whatever *.fcs files have been created.

On many of the trading threads, I hear far more complaints about other broker websites than with Fido!
