On some FSX servers the latency is -1, how's this possible because I thought ping was the amount of milliseconds delay between the server and you so how can I play 1 millisecnd faster than the server??

Also, why is this bad? (if it is).

How? I've got loads of anti virus and spyware- how can I be hosting 10 servers? when I've never tried to host one, I don't even know how on FSX! Confused

its a server where if you join it some of your PC's power is used to help the server run its got a special name but i can remember it.(think its dedicated or something)

Quite a lot of slow servers use this to make the server faster

A dedicated server runs direct from the pc and you can not join it if you are the host, but a server like dave, and other's use is called a client side server (E.G. a listen server.) Which they can join and play on.
