[amibroker] Spikes in quote.com intraday data

Hello.

I downloaded free intraday data from quote.com. The problem is that 
there are HUGE spikes in the price data. For example bigcharts.com 
does not have the similar spikes. Also volume seems to be far too 
high for the "spiked" bars. The spikes occur on the last and first 
bars of the day, so I would guess that this is caused by those bars 
including after/pre market activity. The "filter pre/after market 
hours" in Amibroker does not help, which is quite natural if 
the "false" data is included in the data for the first/last bars.

The spikes are bad enough to make the data pretty much unusable. Is 
there anything that could be done to this or some other way to get 
free historical intraday data?
