Pablo-None of the Type Rating Course lessons should cause any type of connection. Not sure what you are seeing- but I'm betting it's a coincidence.

do you have adobe acrobat open during the lesson? As it might be using the web to try and get an update for the program as i believe it as an auto-update facility, this has happened to me before... if not then disregard :)

It's asking for a constant weather update and not the one off as per my system set-up. So to fix it I've just amended the text file from WEATHER3 to WEATHER2 and this has fixed the problem. Your help was still appreciated as it nudged me to think from a different angle including the acrobat auto update which I've now also switched off.Cheers...Pablo
