How do you stop a run away AI?

If the runnaway civ is on another continent, consider building a strong navy and harrasing their coastal cities (pillaging fishing boats, attacking their navy, and killing any wayward embarked units). Most of the time they will respond by building a navy piecemeal and attacking you with one unit at a time, which is entirely counterproductive, particularly if you're using privateers. You don't need to actually conquer any cities. A strong navy can harrass indefinetely, break access to food, break trade routes, and cause the AI to waste hammers throughout the remainder of the game or until you're able to muster the forces for a land assault.
 
I tried installing the info addict mod, and i have it activated, but i don't see it ingame...

It can be a bit fussy to load properly, but it will appear if you do it properly... I think, IFIRC, you can't hit any "Back" buttons during the loading process. Also make sure you have the correct version fo, I assume, G&K... It's a great mod, but I only occasionally use it...probably when I feel like, from Turn 1, I really want all that extra information...
 
Even if you are an era behind and running low on units, war is still possible. I was once at war with Gandhi who was in the Atomic Era while I was still using Landships and Artillery, but I did manage to beat him (who luckily didn't nuke me to death). Read the full story here.

1) You have to start your games via the 'MODS' option in main menu. Both when creating them initially, and every time you load one up again later.

2) You can't use the mod in a game that was created before you installed the mod, or if you created the game via the regular single-player mode instead of through 'MODS'.

3) To find the InfoAddict interface, click on the little 'Additional Information' scroll just to the left of the spy options button, you will see it listed in there, if you followed 1 & 2 correctly.
 
I have the latest version of G&K and also the info addict installed for G&K. I am startng it via the mods menue (which also has the little green tick) but i just don't see anything new in the additional info scroll tab...

Did you start a brand new game? Or are you trying to use it in a game you created before adding the mod?
