Dear R People:
About 2 years ago, there were a few messages about
the function priceIts from library(its) generating error
messages.
One of the suggested fixes at that time was to check
security software and such.
I'm getting the same message tonight, and have checked

Maybe we should update the base URL. I maintain CPAN's Finance::YahooQuote
(and am author of two apps, also on CPAN, which use it fairly heavily) and
this has been nothing but roc

The error message indicates that a problem is occurring in download.file.
Try to use download.file to download some web page from the internet to
see if that works,
download.file("http://www.google.com";, destfile = "google.htm")
If that does NOT work then examine the download.file help page ca
internet (your
browser, blocked sites etc) rather than a problem in R?

Dear All,
There is an example for the priceIts function (the its package) which
does not work for me as expected.
> ?priceIts
> x1 <- priceIts(instrument = c("^ftse"), start = "1998-01-01",
+ quote = "Close")
Error in validObject(.Object) : invalid class "its" object:

Dear R People:
In library(its), there is a command priceIts.
There is a problem with this command. It is returning an error message:
> ibm1 <- priceIts(instrument="ibm",start="1998-01-01",quote="Open")
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method = method, quiet = quiet) :
cannot open
