I tried that and an uninstall and reinstall, and both did not work. When this problem began IYP quit working and I had to do a restart of my computer to get it going again.

I suggest you re-update itsyourplane to also replace any missing files or components through this page. http://www.itsyourplane.com/startup.asp?p=/html/revisions.asp activate the link which says click "here" to install or update itsyourplane. and install Itsyourplane again. (remember to give your registered mail on the details deuring the update procedure) do not worry, your settings won't be touched.
