Craig replies: Hi Mark, I'm not sure what you mean by The proxy server here requires a user name and password. How do you enter/configure your browser to use a proxy server that requires a username and password? I'm not familiar with this configuration. Regards, Craig One of the few shareware kinds of software that handles this situation correctly is Personal Stock Monitor. Quoting from the Help file: "Personal Stock Monitor automatically detects whether a quote or proxy host requires authentication, and will pop up a dialog box allowing you to enter your user name and password. During the time PSM is waiting for the user name and password, all network activity is suspended." Regards, Mark
