Very strange, ALROT....
..especially as you were quite happily flying with us at 18:30 GMT tonight, (Sunday).... :o...!

I doubt very much if the problem was caused by anyone here at Sim V....
....more likely a fault on your electrical supply...lightning...?

My SP1 firewall is never on, and I dont have a ROUTER, and I never have any problems in Multiplayer due to other users... ;)...!

I would check your computer hardware/software first... ;)...!

Paul...Multiplayer flying from 18:00 to 21:00 hours GMT....no problems... 8)...!

God Iam glad you show Paul you were there,I know how this thing work,I never had to my self internet like now, so I trust an I didn't activate my firewall (Im so stupid :(.) I know because you were there,It wont repeat it again (never leave without a firewall) this is could be and advise to other fellows here,the IP the sim IP is public is easy to see by even a stranger a guy that doesn't even know what is flight simulator
Paul the hard drives has (Im sure you know a section to define partition & cluster size etc ; the INI sector)a hacker or a simple  lamber use tools to do this,Now I get it why this SP2 insist to activate antivirus and by defaul they activate you windows firewall

......Friends check and keep always activate a firewall......

Boy...That was fast the hhd make a funny noice and HDD (information,win xp etc was kill in a second)I got partition magic when I boot it NO PARTITION! Jesus :o I saw in many other cybers before,but you never learn until happends to you....Paul maybe you antivirus repels this Kind of   attack by not let someone to manipulate your pc from internet ,I download  a free antivirus  ::) That could be the reason Too,By the moment I can't afford a good antivirus (I ran out of money to have internet ;D well a little just to buy food and the needs)

Anyway still I like to fly in multiplayer Ill join again after I install everything Back....No problem Paul and thanks

;D
Paul...Multiplayer flying from 18:00 to 21:00 hours GMT....no problems...
But remember take it easy on me ,when we join Ill have to use the lear45 ,I got use to this one

Hello Alrot,

A pitty that your first multiplayer experience ended like that.
But I highly doubt that was the result of a "hack".
This sounds like a mechanical failure to me.
People flying on a FS Server cannot see your IP Adress.
And it would need a good sniffer and a big portion of luck
to find it out. Hackers usually don
