I am getting this error while tried out the above to yahoo quotes.
I have tried this in my test PC which is using Xampp and I cannot see an issue I’m afraid. I have a reasonably fast connection and the quotes come in about 1 second maximum time.
Example output
description latest figure
symbol MSFT
last price 15.90
date 3/2/2009
time 1:43pm
change -0.25
open 15.95
high 16.25
low 15.82
volume 46050552
I noticed you have an Indian email address , you could always try
http://in.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=MSFT&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv
instead of
http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=msft&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv
