Got a kind email last week about not feeding data to Flight Aware. It surprised me as I keep tabs on the input and output of this machine on a constant basis. I had the same thing happen with PlanePlotter earlier that week. Rebooted, and was fine, sharing resumed.
Not so lucky with Flight Aware. It shows data leaving my machine to FA’s IP address every 10 seconds as normal, yet the statistics still show me off-line. Even went so far as to turn off all other services on this machine and download an IP network monitor to make sure.
