Majo,
I will be quick to say that your ping is not bad, at least, not the worst:
I am on the ATAG with a ping of 230ms (I am from a country very far away and many firewalls to go through) and still the game is ultra smooth for me.
It may depend however, on the bandwidth you and your friends have. I am on a fiber-optic 8Mbps and my conf.ini setings are for DSL/cable. It may be that this makes the difference in CoD (compared to the IL2FB network settings we used to put).
So, depending how big your line is, try with the highest network settings in CoD.
As far as the Launcher has stopped working message I think there is an easier explanation:
CoD has a memory leak! :O (no big news, even my cat knows it) Not when you stand parked on the ground (I tested it) but while you are flying.
Check the amount of available free RAM of your PC regularly. If it becomes too low, you are bound to experience this. Your mileage may vary, depending on the amount of RAM on your system. My personal limit on 6Gb RAM (12Gb = 6Gb Ramdisk for COD, 6GB for Win7) is 2 hours on the server.
@Kruppi: Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it was not a ghost squad, I went for the intercept vestor as per radar, I found the bomber group, I was close enough (but too low) to see the detailed shapes of the Wellingtons flying.
