Tim, the fact that the current version runs fine on your Windows 7 computer, but on Win 8.1 and (for Mark, and now apparently others) not on Windows 10 - indicates that the Windows Security settings named 'SmartScreen' might be responsible for interruption of web access to TwinSpires, and thus causing a 'stalling/not responding' effect.

I have long since disabled SmartScreen on my Win 10 computers, and my older Windows Vista (pre-Windows 7) never had it and also works fine.

I am gathering some info for folks on how to disable SmartScreen in their Windows Security/Firewall/Defender settings and will post them here as soon as I can.

Meanwhile, anyone afflicted with sluggish or intermittent performance in RDSS V2.1.049.11 (current version) is welcomed to research disabling SmartScreen via Google, or browse around in their Windows Security Settings.

Ted
