This has stopped working again with Yahoo UK, normal stocks seem to work okay, but Mutual Funds don't, neither do lookups for things like FTSE, DAX etc
Double clicking on the Fund takes me to the desired page where I can see the price, it just will not download it

Updating the program solved this issue for me. I use Yahoo finance. Just go to "Help" and "check for updates." A new update is currently available.

Again this doesnt work.
I had switched to Bloomberg but now this isn't working.
Back to Yahoo (UK) but that doesn't work either.
I have the latest update.

MechCAD is already aware of the problem and is working on it.

A new version, 4.36.6, has been posted to fix issues with Bloomberg, Yahoo, Google, and currency exchanges.

Apparently there is still a problem for UK users, but not for US users:
The problem for people from UK (and most likely rest of Europe) is that Yahoo Finance returns differently format data to our requests, and that changes throughout the day. The currencies work for US customers.
