I have the same problem. I used to be able to download winds aloft a couple of weeks ago but not anymore.I can't even open http://www.aviationweather.gov with my browser!

In fact www.aviationweather.gov is the only URL I can't access on the whole friggin internet! This is driving me nuts.

Believe this has something to do with the last worm attack. Hopefully the page will be available soon.
