Hello,

Today I started to get this error message on connection. What does it mean?

I just updated to Java 1.7 and Build 2.7.3, but this has not fixed it.

I am intermittently getting this error on connection as well:

I have just had a perfectly valid Demo account username/password rejected and then accepted a few seconds later. Are there authentication problems on the server?

It looks like some problem with JAVA.
