Firefox 2 and Windows XP. I am behind a decently strict company firewall as well.
UI issue: When I click on a stock, I get the stock quote and information on the right side just fine. However, it does not say anywhere the name of the company. I think that putting the company name above the stock quote on the right frame would be useful.
External links: When linking to an external site (such as Google Finance) "Open in a new Window" does not work for me. Also, the bookmarks link is a bit confusing; it shows a few icons (like del.icio.us) and one could think that clicking on a part of that bookmarks icon would be linking to that particular service. Finally, the top bar (the Streetread part) seems to blend into the external page at times; maybe use part of the dark blue header in the design of the external top bar?
Overall, I think that this is a great service so far, good work!
