I just downloaded Plan-G last night. Used it offline and very impressed with it. A great addition to the virtual community. This morning I fired it up again, created a plan. I'm also using VAFinancials AFCAD program.
Set up everything and connected Plan G to FSX. A couple minutes later when I started the VAFinancials AFCAD program my computer crashed and turned off. I do not know what caused it. Could be something between the AFCAD program, which I have been using for a couple of years now with no problem, and Plan G or something else. Just wanted ot let you know.

Here's my systems specs.
Intel Corporation DG43NB AAE34877-402
3.15 gigahertz Intel Core2 Duo
3068 Mg Memory
1TB SataII 7200RMP HD
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS
Dual Monitors
Windows Vista Ultimate SP2

The simplest way to find out what caused your crash is to look at the Windows System and/or Application logs. These should record the crash and what program/driver/etc caused it. You can get to the system logs by running Administrative Tools\Event Viewer.

Interesting. Wish I was more savvy on this systems business. From what I read most of the "error" reports were a Firefox issue (Using that program for my interrnt service.
Here;s a copy of one event - below. I have no idea of what it's saying other than the crash. 
Figure the crash I went through was an operator error and nothing to do with Plan-G, which I fired up again, offline from FSX and working just fine. Will go on line with it later today.
Thank you for your response.

Your computer was not able to renew its address from the network (from the DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address 001CC07AF5CB.  The following error occurred:
The operation was canceled by the user.. Your computer will continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network address (DHCP) server.
