Why am I paused all the time

[machie 1]

Hi allThis problem just started happening to me. My FS9 sim is pausing all by itself about every 15 min or so--I know that this sometimes happens out of the blue so to speak but for the first time in my memory it is happening on a regular basis--this makes long virtual airlines flights a big problem--CAN ANYBODY HELPThanks for any ideas

Are you using AVG Free 9.0?There seems to be a bug in it

Also, does the software from your VA require you to move the mouse every 15 minutes? If so, Google on a utility called Xumouse.

In FS, is Pause on Task Switch checked On?
