The version of TWS i'm running is newer than that one. I am trading stocks and so the FA bug should have no effect on me from what i've read.

TWS seems to be stable now...unfortunately I get the following error message when I try to connect to IB
Login failed: IB adapter.MessageLoop No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

You created four threads for the same topic. Please be more careful. It had to do with the way you were editing your first post, you kept submitting new threads.
Ok sorry Mike, I didn't realize I was doing that. I was editing my posts after I thought of additional things to add and then I hit whatever button submits the post...but i didn't realize it was creating new threads. I guess i'm not too clear on how that works. I'll look into it and be more careful
I just edited this post as a test...and then hit save....thats all there is to it I suppose...I wonder what i was doing to make additional threads? hmmmm I'm confused about that.

Ok i'm an idiot! When I reinstalled the correct version of TWS, I forgot to go back and configure it
specifically it was the "enable ActiveX and Socket Clients" that was not checked"
thanks for everyone who took an interest in helping.
Bottom line was I was using the unsupported version of TWS. Had I read more carefully in the beginning, I could have resolved it myself. Then I neglected to start from step one again after re installing the correct version.
Impatience does one no good...in installing software or in trading.
Lesson Learned - I hope
