I keep getting this stupid message:Obviously this is nonsense because I am online now, and there is plenty of bandwidth for it so it should be fine...right? It works sort of OK for the first few hours, and then I start getting this, first every half hour, then right down to every 5 seconds. Please can someone help make it go away?! :( I also get big white crosses when using the ISD LIRF scenery. This never happened at first but after a re-installation it came to haunt me. I had the same thing at Mumbai, but after installing the IFSD Irish stuff it went away, so I'm assuming its the same here.This is what it looks like:Help would be most appreciated.Thanks

Nothing? Pleeease someone help!

Hi,Looks like you are missing some textures for that add-on scenery.

I would turn off all firewalls and see if problem persists. It could be Windows or a 3rd party firewall blocking FS9's access to the Internet. I had this problem before, but now I can not remember how I solved it, sorry.

As for the real weather link it does sometimes go down. So if you are confident that your link is ok and your spyware/antivirus programe hasn't blocked it then you will just have to be patient!ISD Lirf my scenery is fine so you might have a bug in your scenery or a problem with your card. ISD themselves are no longer on line so you will have to wait until the library is up before downloading a fresh copy.

Thanks guys. I don't have any AV software at all, I had AVG free but when it started scanning it brought my i7 920 to its knees (!) so I got rid of it and am completely vulnerable, apart from the standard XP stuff. If I turn off the Windows firewall will that help, and would I be even more vulnerable?AS for the LIRF, I have the original downloaded file and still get this. I put all the textures into the FS9/Texture folder but haven't checked yet if it worked. Also it happened on my old PC with GeForce 4000, and now with GTX285.
