I have been using AirVPN for over a month without any problems. Now, suddenly, when I sign in and try to connect to any server, I get a message saying that AirVPN "can't communicate with TOR blah blah blah is TOR up and running? (see log file below)" Yes it was up and runinng. I am on Windows 7 and using the latest TOR brower bundle. Nothing changed since yesterday when I last successfully used AirVPN. No updates to TOR were installed. No updates to AirVPN were installed, No changes were made to the AirVPN or TOR settings (in AirVPN in protocols the TOR option is checked with Host=127.0.0.1; Port=9150; control Port=9151, again, I have made no changes to these), No updates to Windows were installed. I've tried everything. An old thread referenced the instructions for using AirVPN with TOR, but all it said was that AirVPN will work with the Troy Browser bundle. I tried closing and restarting TOR, I tried closing and restating AirVPN, I tried restarting my computer. Finally I tried re-installing TOR. No luck. Here is a copy of the log file: ! 2016.04.20 09:55:18 - Connecting to Cephei (Canada, Toronto, Ontario) . 2016.04.20 09:55:18 - TOR Control authentication method: Cookie, from I:\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Tor\control_auth_cookie W 2016.04.20 09:55:18 - Unable to communicate with TOR (Unable to find IP address of TOR first node of an established circuit.).

Is TOR up and running? etc. etc. if just keeps repeating this. I looked in the browser bundle file and the cookie it is looking for is there. Do how do I fix this?
