    Hi Jim,

    I've just tried downloading the file from the Dreamfleet site and was able to successfully start the download.

    Are you running anything that might block the download ? Your posting suggests that it is the starting of the download process causing the problem rather than being able to download an error-free file.

  3. Default download problem

    Thank you for your reply. The download progresses ok right up to 100% as far as I can tell although I seem to recall it going to 99%.. Anyway I am getting the error message as stated previously. This is all done with virus protection disabled. The problem is actually more complicated than that, With the antivrus enabled (AVG) I get a virus infection alert when downloading. I have an order number and purchase password etc, do you think it may be possible to get this airplane back by other means.. It certainly is a good one. It was necessary for me to reinstall everything due to a disaster.
    Thank you for your help !

    Hi Jim,

    AVG is the problem. It has a problem with the Flight1 wrappers, and the only solution is a full uninstallation. Simply "deactivating" AVG and its running processes is not enough.

    Remove AVG and re-download the Wrapper files - your problem should go away. Then you can look to replacing AVG with a better, less troublesome AV package.

    If you need to renew your Key files this can be done using the automated Flight1 system.

  5. Default Success!

    Hi Alastair

    I took your advice and got rid of AVG> Now have Norton.

    But not out of the woods...I received a new key but when I use it I get and "invalid data" error message. something to the effect that data within the key may have changed or have wrong key. I have double checked and the key is one I asked for. Not sure what to do now.

    Thanks very much for your help

    Hi Jim,

    You could try using the automated system to retrieve your order passwords and confirm that you're using the correct code, but if you have:

    the correct 4-number code
    the correct Key
    have not "opened" the Key
    do not have any part of Norton AV running

    and still have a problem, you may need to open a Service Ticket and have the matter investigated by hand:
