[GNC] Yahoo JSON - throwing unauthorized error

[David G. Pickett]

PS: I give up on Yahoo!
Switching all my securities to Alphadvantage was tiresome, as the gui was no responsive to the keyboard, but I found the source could be found using page up.  Some display at the security editor main screen or somewhere would help to see which is running quotes where, how many currently owned. I have many stocks not currently owned, and so they should not be quoted.  I got more info out of an strace.  Having the security editor sort each list might be much nicer, too.   Ditto for the portfolio report.  Most reports in this world sort left to right, for some silly reason.

Now it is so slow, and while some work, it locks up on some security.  Maybe it needs a timeout error?  I resolves the host name over and over.  Eventually only perl is running, and then nothing.  It takes a long time just to get to "Found Finance::Quote version 1.5301."  I ran an strace on the batch quotes, found a few stocks still on Yahoo by accident (but yahoo was at least not hanging), reran, still running, showing occasional activity, but really slow, so slow I was sure it was dead, but no!  I can send the strace if it would help!  The yahoo when working ran all my stocks in a few seconds.  OK for midnight crontab but for the get quotes button is too slow.

I can send the strace, or make an strace, optionally with usec time stamps, if desired.  POGSX did not have a 5/5 quote, only 5/4 for some reason!

Yeah, it's back.     
   - Is Yahoo aware of their server rejects?  
   - Is there some magic cookie or such we need to be authorized?  Many previous fixes proposed, which did not seem to prevent its return!
