What problems are you having with latest TWS?

Quote from samaritan:
We recently found a problem on our backend server software that was causing mass disconnects. This has been fixed. However, there is still a less severe disconnect problem that we are currently investigating. The disconnect will cause the TWS screen to go pink and in some cases freeze the market data. We are working feverishly to find and correct this problem.
As of this morning, I'm still having this problem intermittently (though less frequently than last week).
Anyone else?
I'm still experiencing this same problem (pink outs). IB, can you please update us on the status of the fix?
Thank you.
Thank you.

From IB tech support chat just now....
Kevin P: I spoke with a manager, and was told this issue is still being investigated, as of now no exact ETA, but we will update Elite Trader with any new info as it becomes available...
Samaritan,
One thing I've noticed when these "outages" occur, is that when TWS comes back online after 5-10 seconds, all the filled orders and other garbage that was on the basket trader pages disappears which is is good. In other words, under normal use of the basket trader, after one clicks the "transmit" button for say 40 symbols, 4-5 order lines often get stuck and do not go away even though the orders were filled. But these remaining "order lines" screw up the basket page totals!
Anyway, whenever these "disconnects/reconnects" happen, I notice that all basket trader pages are once again cleaned of old garbage which is the only positive out of this mess.

At this point, we are still trying to find the cause.

I'm running 870.2. In the past couple of weeks, I've had several TWS "pink-outs", where the TWS and booktrader grid go pink, but TWS is not trying to log me in again. The data in booktrader is still being refreshed, but any orders placed or cancelled do not go through to the exchange and orders filled do not register until the pink-out is over.
I thought that this was an internet connectivity problem, as I've been having such problems as of late; however, the one I just had this morning was not an internet problem.
I've seen comments on various threads citing lost connection problems with recent versions of TWS. If you've had such problems, are they similar to the one I described above? What is the last stable version of TWS with no such problems?
Thank you.
This use to happen to me all the time, seems it happened when I would have a good size position on, I finally got sick of it, and I never did like their order entry software, so I left IB.
TWS is the most outdated order entry platform on the market. Just wait till they go public, guaranteed rate increase on the way.
