    IB now has some scrolling text on their website. I clicked on their 2006 Traders' Calendar, and it may have screwed up my computer (temporarily.) It started acting funny, and I couldn't access the internet until I restarted it. It could have been something else, but I just thought I'd tell everyone to be careful.

    Downloaded it last night.

    Didn't notice any problems.

    It's just a PDF which I've downloaded w/o problem on both a PC and a Mac.

    Sometimes adobe pops up a "check for updates" window that won't let you work until it is click. if it is hidden behind other applications you might think you have computer problems.

    I downloaded the pdf, saved as a desktop icon, and have opened and closed a few times with no problems.
     
  5. If you can't see the pdf after clicking on it several times, do a ctrl alt del and see if there are several adobe processes running, then end those processes. And there is a way to disable all those damn checks that adobe pdf viewer runs when launching so that it will luanch instantly. I cringe when I accidenly click on a link that I didn't catch was a pdf - what a hog.
