System error when trying to obtain stock quotes

[Gérard TESTA]

Great.

You are right, LeRevenu.pm induce a system error when retrieving quotes.

First I removed every LeRevenu in Edit Quotes and replace them with
Bourso.
I did not get all the quotes but I had no more system error message.

Then I successfully used LeRevenu.pm you indicate.

Thank you very much, you totally solved my problem.
