2010-11-13 17:22:36 - Waiting for weather download...
Hi

I´m participating in the Ron Cazar race and I quite often get a case where the applicaitons loads, but the map is blank and in the status bar it just says "Waiting for weather download...".

What is this, is it something on my end or is it server related?

Thanks!

Ok, I started my other computer and it worked there, so this obviously is a problem on my end, I just cant figure out what the problem is..

Clearing the cache doesn't do it for me.

Help, my boat keeps running into land.

Heron: Have you waited long enough to to exclude the possibility of a very slow download?

Are you behind a corporate web proxy?

Yes I was. I'm back in the water and racing again. Is there anything simple that can be done to the proxy serer to allow it to pass through Sail Online?

Thanks
