Started up the flightsim this morning and shortly into the load up the following message appeared;
"esellerateengine not found"
Tried searching PC, can find no mention of esellerate anywhere. Sim loaded up after I acknowledged the warning message.
Anyone have a clue what it is and more importantly how I can get rid of the damn message?
Cheers

Stewart,
If you run a Google search, I think you will find that it is spyware.
Suggest you install and run Spybot S&D, and Ad-Aware............both freeware, and will remove most tracking devices.

Hi guys,
Well I have run three different spyware removers and I still get that flaming message on start-up. I have been back and forward through the Fs9 folders and done a search of my system and I am bu**ered if I can find where it's hiding.
I've emailed esellerate and asked their advice, but would welcome any more suggestions you have.
Thanks
Stewart :think:

Sounds like it is being called as part of the FS9 load. Have a look in the .ini files and see of there is any record of it.
Just a thought.

Hi Ben,
That sounds like what I am looking for. I assumed the .ini files would be in the same locastion as the FS9 cfg, obviously not.
Can you advise as to where I should be searching?
Sorry for nuisance.

Hi Stewart,
Sorry about the mix up. It was the cfg file I meant.

Well, they don't use Esellerate, so that shot that theory down!
