It's not until I do that that I have any problems. Their whole platform is built on Java. I run their stand-alone application version on Windows Vista. I've run it on OS X. I've tried to run the stand-alone Linux application on Gentoo, both 32-bit & 64-bit, but couldn't get it to install. (Maybe 6 months ago? Maybe longer.) Anyway, the whole trading platform is Java based but you won't get to the real meat of the problem until you create an account (free to create) and then run the full blown program. I'll keep looking into this. Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
