Hi Jim,thanks for your quick response!Yes, I can access your websiteYes, I have forced the Primary ServerI've disabled my anti-virus and made a test, same result!Here are some screens:When I fetch KJFK (for the first time, could not be in a cache or so) it gives me weather from 220850Zfsscr000.jpgSettings in Options:fsscr001.jpgDownloading Current gives the same result!fsscr003.jpgAll versions before have worked without ANY problems!?!?!?Maybe I try a new installation!@edit: when I start the Update the line is visible:420~370K bytes download (Server 1) and it is counting!This means for me that the connection with the server is ok and working.2nd@edit: Hmmmmm, when I try to download ("Download Archive") let's say weather from 2005 12 24 I get an error message:... invalid weather file folder ... please set a valid folder before continuing ...This is what's in my settings:D:ProgrammeMicrosoft GamesFlight Simulator 9ModulesASv6... and this is exactly, where the program resides!Can this be the cause of the problem?Thanks a lotRen

AND DISREGARD !!!!I run the installer again (with repair function) and now it works!Sorry for taking your time, but maybe this is also a helpful solution for same or similar problems in the future!Let the fuel burn :-)Ren

As another data point - I had the same problem, and a "repair" operation and reapply of the SU1 update cured it (so far).
