Ticked all the aircraft switching boxes (5-6 boxes) to OFF, so that its possible to change a/c.

when on multiplayer I still dont get a single server indicated... game searches for about 30 sec. and then "No Server found" message appears...

PLS ! give me some input on this issue.

PS: antivir is deactivated

cheers
When you want to join an existing server use Multiplayer.... Client and pick from one of the servers listed (be sure that the 'Source' drop-down box is set to 'Internet'). If none appear, close 'Client' and try again (a known bug).

When you want to create your own server use Multiplayer...Server. Give your server a 'Name' (any name will do), maybe add some 'Info' like "Testing", enter a Password if you want to password protect your server, set the Max Players you want on the server, set Realisms and click OK. Now you should have a list of missions/campaigns available down the left hand side of the next screen. If not, use the orange gunsight symbols (top left) the same way you would use folder symbols in Explorer to navigate up and down the folders until you find the Dogfight and Co-Op folders and their sub-folders. Highlight the mission you want to run and click 'Select'. At the 'map room' screen click 'Start Battle', it will load, you will be in it and others will see it on the 'Client' list. Well, that's the theory.

Works for me.
