Are you using the default start flight at Meigs? If not, try going into Select a flight, then choose `other` in the category list and click "Default flight - Meigs Field".
Check the "Make default flight" box at the bottom of the page.
If you ARE using that as the default flight, change it to any thing else for now, load up a default Cessna 172 and see if the problem persists.
If it doesn't restore Meigs as the default flight again and that will hopefully have cured it.

It's not impossible that it's a virus but it's highly unlikely.
They tend to do more with the operating system than cause problems like yours in games.
A re-install will hopefully resolve it if you don't want to explore any other options. (Can't think of any personally off hand anyway... lol
)

Is one of your add-ons for Meigs scenery?
It sounds like maybe the elevation of the runway is wrong if so. The 172 is also prone to "bounce" at very low speeds when on rough ground rather than concrete. If the runway has been moved and it hasn;t been hardened properly, that could account for the singular behaviour with the 172.

i dont have any addon for meigs, they are all aircrafts. The plane jus sinks into the runway when i apply power to it, its weird and first sarted when i was playing in my "home lan".
I just remembered this, and i use only one off the 2 pcs to play in the net, and every time i play some updates are installed by zone.com, maybe this corrupted the files from the not updated pc when i was playing the updated one with the not updated one, but I'm jus guessing here
