I'm wondering if anyone else having this problem:

In Flight Simulator, when I download the real world weather, it gives me an error message to check my internet connection. As you see my internet is working well since I created this forum. It all started yesterday and I don't know what is wrong with it. Can anyone help me???

You are not the only one.Since i use Active Sky weater update i didnt notice it but check it now and get the same message.Seems that they have some problems with servers or something.I hope soon will be fixed.

The weather seems to update fine, you may want to check your firewall settings to see if permissions are set to allow FS9 to access the internet.

I don't think it's you. I have had problems since Wed. Yesterday it seemed alright and I just checked at http://fs2k.zone.com/ and it came right up. Someone else suggested they may be intalling new features for FSX or they may just be having trouble with the servers. You are not alone anyway. I have an always on DSL connection and web pages load when the weather won't so I know it's not at my end. You are not alone.
