Since our last topic shows as answered, I am reposting a new one.
I am using Microsoft Excel 2010 and up until yesterday, 12/22/14 ~10am everything has been working fine. At the moment this connection is still unavailable and instead of quotes it downloads the main MSN money website into a spreadsheet. It appears that http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/external/excel/quotes.asp?SYMBOL= link from the IQY file is not functional anymore.
There is a number of folks having the same issue, so it is likely that the issue is with MSN.
Here is the link to an old threat:
