"I started a trial a few weeks back before the market went wild. DTN.IQ didn’t miss anything and beat my other provider. I decided to stay with you because of the great service through all the volatility." - Comment from Mike
"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim

Hello,

Here is the situation:
1. Newest stable IQFeed Developer 2.3.0.1 installed already
2. Windows XP after fresh restart
3. Attempt to run "News Example" that ships with developer package
(using Start->Programs->IQFeed->News Example)
4. Login page appears ... logs in correctly and THEN....
5. An error dialog appears saying:

"Error: A version of IQ Connect is already running"

Exactly the same problem with ANY OTHER application using IQFeed
including IQFeed's own apps: History, Watch List, etc
as well as 3rd party apps: QuoteTracker, my own app (amibroker).

The only way to get rid of it is to perform FULL WINDOWS RESTART.
And then sometimes one restart helps sometimes not.

This status quo is for more than one year (yes I reported it earlier directly
to IQFeed support).

I've noticed you have installed other applications which use the feed. Could you verify the location of IQConnect, based on the registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\DTN\IQFeed\EXEDIR
If the IQ32.dll used by your program isn't the same one used by IQConnect, this error always happens.

Is this a situation where no programs will run or only one?
