I have been experimenting with Web Queries. Specifically, I am tryin
to pull a bunch of statistics on a list of stocks from Yahoo Finance.
Below is the code i have. It works, HOWEVER, there are 2 questions
have.

1. I get a Opening HTTP://finance.yahoo.com ---- message each tim
the loop runs. Is there any way to deactivate this message?
2. It seems to take about 3-5 second per item to run. Can I improv
the process time? Not a big deal, but if the list get long (and i
can) this could take some time.

Any suggestions on how to improve this would be greatly appreciated.
