[amibroker] Re: IB plugin and TWS 848 multiple-day backfill- >>AB Freezing

I upgradred to TWS 848.8 2005/07/01 lastnight. Have only 20 symbols 
and now every scan that used to run fine last week are now freezing 
AB.
And any backfill is very very very slow! 
What version of TWS is most compatible. Wondering if I will be able 
to revert to the older version of TWS. How?
