spinker:
Hello,
I have recently tried GSX and it loaded properly although SIMCONNECT is still showing it as couatl1.
Exe Launched Path="fsdreamteam\couatl1\couatl1.exe CommandLine="" version ="2.0.0 2298"
Should this be fixed and if so how.

As I've said, it's not normal that line would show couatl1.exe. We install it as couatl.exe, the only thing that can cause this, it's either a manual rename or an antivirus that renamed the file and even the folder it was in.
A solution was already posted in my previous message:
--- Quote ---Uninstall GSX and (IMPORTANT) reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Couatl engine ?" and "Do you want to remove the Addon Manager ?"
BEFORE reinstalling, be sure there's no couatl1 or couatl folder left in your FSX\fsdreamteam, if there are, remove them both, then reinstall.

just to test the virus theory have you tried disabling your virus protection to see if it happens again when u reboot and have you tried installing gsx with out the virus protection on
spinker:
I use Norton and have all antivirus turned off other than email protection.
Couatl has been running properly now for 2 days.
I have searched my computer for "couatl1" and did not find any reference to it other than when running SIMCONNECT.
I am also finding after using SIMCONNECT that when I start FSX Im am now getting a message warning me not to install a particular file as it has been corrupted a sample of the is below:
E:\FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_Y\OBJECTFLOW_YMML.DLL
I have installed anyway.
I have not checked with ORBX yet what to do, It has happened twice with different files.
This makes me concerned about using SIMCONNECT.

If you mean the white error box that FSX sometimes displays, suggesting a module might not working correctly ? It's usually harmless, it happens to our modules too sometimes, and I believe it's related on some way to the trust system going astray, it's usually cured by a Windows reboot, and always allowing the module to run anyway.
Simconnect it's an integral part of FSX, and it's used by any 3rd party addon module, so it's safe to use and you really can't do without it. If it gets corrupted or doesn't work for any reason, no 3rd party modules will work, and an FSX repair or reinstall would be needed.
