real IP leak if you use AirVPN in combination with WFC

If you use WFC in combination with AirVPN Client and Firefox is your preferred Browser you have to be careful,  otherwise you have a leak of your real IP. like this

The reason for this was that I started the AirVPN client where WFC was running. Under this condition the IP Tracker shows the real IP if I use Firefox. If I did the same using Vivaldi I only see the VPN IP. After some questions in some forums and different test I found a way to prevent the user from this problem  = you must exit WFC before you start the AirVPN client and lock the network. If the AirVPN client is running you can start WFC again. This is a good example that you cant be 100% sure that a VPN makes you unrecognizable under every conditions. And no it is not a WebRTC problem (WebRTC is disabled in FF).

if I start AirVPN Client first and let him lock the network on startup and start the WFC delayed (that it starts after VPN client) the IP-Tracker only shows the VPN IP :D
