Why can't I download prices for some stocks?

Question

Usually I can download stock prices to CSV format from http://download.finance.yahoo.com. But currently these stocks have no prices and "no such ticker symbol"

AIG,BA,BP,COMS,NCR,PCX

Any idea what's going on? I submitted a help from to Yahoo Finance but maybe someone here knows the answer.

Thanks!

Answer 3

SWHC (Smith & Wesson) is a local company here in Western MA., so the local TV station gives the quote during the 6 PM news.  Last night they gave the price as $0.00.  It was the first time I ever saw that.  I guess it was a problem with NASDAQ transmitting the closing quotes.
