Mine have been fine all day. I am using the MyTrack SDK.

Newswatch doesn't seem to have PRNewswire today for some unknown reason.

Sierracharts cannot connect. I can connect the Mytrack app but it gets a "host bounced" message and disconnects after a while.

Trackdata got hit with a denial of service attack. I had several bogus looking emails from them this morning, deleted them all without opening them, part of the attack I would have to guess.

Thanks for the update. I'm still dumping them, moving to DTN-IQ. TrackData has had too many problems in the past few months that reportedly have not been experienced by DTN.

TrackData has low costs, but what is the cost of one missed trade when their feed is down?

Those bogus looking emails are part of the email virus spread that is going around and did not originate from myTrack. The virus spoofs the FROM address.
