Holy *hit!
Where did you find that? I am sure that would almost certainly violate
their
licensing with NASDAQ/NYSE :).
They probably put it out there so that their browser 'companions' (MSIE
plugins)
can grab the data. Excite@Home did something similar for their client
(when I
was there) but we used a somewhat decent auth mechanism..
