I just got back. I am able to logon at this time. Yesterday was real bad day to use Discover. I have a 256K DSL connection, so its very noticeable when they are running slow or not at all. I think their problem is one of capacity. Most of the time there will be a slowdown followed by an outage while they reboot/restart their systems. Usually these events occur during the busiest times of the day: the first hour of trading. When things are working properly, I have had few problems with their service. But these outages are a killer. I don't like flying blind!!! Regards, Jim
