PlanePlotter Version 6.6.6.9 Released

[Triple7]

From Bev:

Hi,
 
PlanePlotter version 6.6.6.9 is on the web site now.
http://www.planeplotter.com#download
 
For Win XP platforms.  "www.coaa.co.uk/planeplotter6_6_5_9XP.exe" is available without the IPv6 feature.
 
---Usual boilerplate---
Updates are free to registered users.
 
You may need to exercise your browser Refresh function to force it to show you the new version of the PlanePlotter web page. If you post a message complaining that the web page is still pointing to an earlier version, you pay a forfeit - unless I forgot to update the web page, in which case I pay a forfeit!
 
You can install the new version over the old one but you *must* close/exit PlanePlotter before installing the new one. Nic's installer will warn you if PlanePlotter is still running when you try to install the new version. Your settings from the previous installation will be preserved.
 
If you have a version-specific firewall or security system, you may have to reassure it that the new version is permitted to access the Internet. Be aware that increasingly, security systems treat any new file as a threat without any justification except that it is new. Please don't write to me about it; write to your security system provider and ask them to make their program smarter.
