"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

Author	Topic: Windows 2000 problems? (7 messages, Page 1 of 1)
labragg1 -Interested User- Posts: 4 Joined: May 12, 2005	Posted: May 12, 2005 04:42 PM Msg. 1 of 7 Anyone else besides me having problems running DTNiq on Windows 2000-based systems. When I try to log in it just errors out. It has IE 6 SP1 and the latest SP4 for Windows 2000 installed. I have no problems logging in on Windows XP-based system that have IE6 SP2. Any suggestions or work-arounds?

I would guess it is more of a system/firewall issue as opposed to the operating system itself. Can you provide some details regarding the exact messages you are getting while trying to login on the Win2k machine? Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

The only major difference that I can see is that the win2k system is IE 6 sp1 and the winxp system is IE 6 sp2. Also it is Windows 2000 PRO, not Server like your system. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Win2k Pro won't be an issue, neither will IE. DTN.IQ doesn't require IE to operate and thus the version of IE won't have any effect on its operation. As for the network, I understand that each machine connects to the same firewall. However, each machine also has software based firewalls or TCP/IP filtering capabilities. They are pretty crude in Win2k, so I doubt it is an issue, but thought I would mention it. Also, we have had users who used to have software based firewalls such as ZoneAlarm which, even after uninstalling, left a corrupt Winsock that caused IQ to not work. Again, the exact error messages you receive may help identify a place to look. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

IQ encountered the following error while connected to: 5020 Error #10061: Connection refused. The weird thing is that I tried the software on another Windows 2000 system configured with the same identical service packs, etc, and it works fine. What am I missing???
