IB Release Notes......Build 815

Yesterday I upgraded two different PCs to TWS Build 815. Now both machines take for ever for the login box to appear after I click on the login icon. It is that way on both machines. I could go have breakfast in the time it takes. Anyone have a clue?

"C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin\javaw.exe" -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -jar C:\Jts\jts.jar C:\Jts

Thanks Def. I knew about that little tidbit, but I need a reminder. I will change my login strings and see what happens.
 
I went to the IB site for the upgrade, but noticed something very strange before I started the download. All of the links to download TWS s/w are pointing to interactivebrokers.ch (notice the Switzerland domain extension). Has it always been this way? Just want to make sure the IB site hasn't been hacked before any more of us download. Def, can you comment?

For the technically incompetent, how does one go about changing "login strings" ?

.ch is our swiss server. downloads go from there to free up traffic.

to change strings: right click on the TWS icon on your desktop, click properties, choose target and edit the string.
