Stocks plugin

[bull]

Ok this new plugin was written by ShockFire, it displays 32 world stocks from yahoo finance and places icons for each on the globe with extra mouseover information, they are also colour coded, green for a rise in value and red for a drop. The plugin displays the icons as percentages or the stock value, you can select which stocks you want displayed in layermanager, the plugin saves these preferences to an xml file. The stock values should refresh every ten minutes automatically, or you can just update them from the plugins menu.

We would like you to report any bugs/errors inparticular if you have any issues with the placement of icons let us know, using google to find the HQ of each was not fun and may not be too accurate.

Hi Bull. Many thanks for the plug in which works just fine once I had figured out where to install it. I find it a little messy to use as I have to unload the plug in before I can get rid of the icons. Much better if one could lose them by just unticking the box.

Thanks again for all your previous wonderful plugins.
