Thanks. I'll give that a try.

Does MilePort fix non-working programs faster? (BMI has been non-working for months, it seems).

I am curious, though: why don't you offer an ad-free version for, say, $20 or $30 a year? I know I would pay it in a minute as would lots of others.

Or a premium version (a la FlyerTalk Premium) that runs on the regular one but without the ads)

If you're seeing this problem with MileTracker from USA Today, switch to MilePort (mileport.com). The guts of the app are the same and you're much less likely to have problems with mischievous ads. It'll even use the same .settings file which it'll ask for you when you install and run it for the first time.
