Ha! I was going to Telenium each night and grabbing all the screens - but never parsed and chucked it all. Used teleport then I found wget and have used it ever since. The other is httrack. I found a LOT of tools you pay for cannot even read Yahoo properly because of the cookies - wget worked perfectly. I had problems getting HTTRACK working with Yahoo even though I was told it would.

The main reason to write my stuff is to aid with the tax side and portfolio management - top down - currency - I am sick sick sick (je suis malade!!!) of the bloody updating all over the place - Yahoo, Quicken against TD and not even having the proper picture US wise.

I was speaking with a woman at work the other day. She doesn't seem to even convert her losses/gains to Canadian currency - because she holds her stocks in her US account (as if that means anything).
