    Use neighbor's unsecured WiFi as backup connection?

    I believe there was a lawsuit a couple of years ago related to this subject. I don't remember the details or outcome but it was realted to using somone elses wirless network. Given all the other reasons posted for not doing this and the possibility of some legal issues, I wouldn't do it.

    IB waaay behind on tech support?

    Thanks Pete but that didn't work, even after fixing the version # typo and rebooting twice. TWS still prompts to check for updates after logging in.

    IB waaay behind on tech support?

    I've done it both ways. First I installed over and when that didn't work I removed everything, and that didn't even work. I'm still asked to check for TWS updates every time i reboot/log in. I guess I could take it out of the Startup program group but then I'd forget to check for updates...

    IB waaay behind on tech support?

    I tried that. I uninstalled everything IB, deleted all tws folders, rebooted and reinstalled TWS. Nothing changed. Still checks for updates on every reboot/login.

    IB waaay behind on tech support?

    I have the same problem. Ever since installing the last (not current) update, whenever I log in I have to check for updates. It's nuts.

    IB waaay behind on tech support?

    And way behind on their data feed as well. I've used IB data feed for the last year with no problems. Since last week I've had 1-2 second and longer freezes when market volume picks up. Earlier this week I subscribed to DTN IQFeed to compare their real time feed to IB's. Well yesterday...

    To cover or not to cover

    In my opinion it depends on your time frame. When I take a long term view (12/24 months) of the DJI, HSI, and other markets as a discretionary trader, this is nothing more than a signal to get out and watch from the sidelines. There is nothing here that tells me short the market or begin...

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    Price control is NOT the solution. Government is the problem, not health care providers or drug companies, although providers gladly take whatever the gov. is willing to pay. That's not the provider's fault, it's still the gov. If a multi-trillion dollar organization said they would pay you...

    I could really lose it on this kind of post, say some real nasty things or try to point you in the right direction but i won't. Your post says it all.

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    Well this may seem extreme but I would add that you cannot vote if you are receiving ANY financial support or assistance from the government.

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    I totally agree!!! GETTING GOVERNMENT OUT OF HEALTH CARE IS STEP #1 TO REDUCING COST AND IMPROVING QUALITY OF SERVICE. We have too many examples of how government screws up the free market system to even consider going down this path of universal health care.

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    How would you like to be on call/work 24x7, neglect family, have minimal personal time then have some government entity tell you that you make too much and your income is going to be reduced? This is not the solution and will only cause quality of health care services to decrease dramatically.

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    Socialized medicine is ok so long as I don't have to pay for it and you have the option of participating. I have no problem with the private organizations forming "clubs" whose membership fees go to pay for all other member's health care services and prescription drugs. Just keep the...

    Canadian Prime Minister says to use Alien Technology

    Maybe this guy and Gore should go to Roswell and chant around the campfire with their tin foil hats on to call in the aliens. This global warming crap is getting way out of hand. BTW, I'm selling my carbon offset for 100K per year. Any takers? PM me and I'll send my wire transfer...
