Re: [LegacyUG] Comparing commercial websites

I'm not a video watcher either. So many of the ones I've seen could have been cut down. 5 min is my max and frequently I end up "skimming" through the videos! Heck, I have a hard time sitting through my favorite half-hour TV shows! And forget audio books - my mind starts to wander after the first

Re: [LegacyUG] Comparing commercial websites

Obviously, you have never been held for ransom, or you would never go to a site about which you have been warned. Many times, the site is trustworthy, but a hacker has stolen the link to the trusted website! McAfee picks those up too. It is one of the most common sources of being infected.

Sometimes AV programs are a little overly aggressive. Avast had no problem with the website, although it complains every time I update Legacy! Sherry On Wed, Sep 6, 2017 at 7:01 PM, CE WOOD wrote: > I do so hate videos and MUCH prefer the written word, but unfortunately, > the

Re: [LegacyUG] Comparing commercial websites

McAfee is well known for 'exaggerating' - nothing wrong with the link / site for the handout. It's well worth getting over your aversion for videos to watch this one - I hate videos as well but this was worth it. Watch it on your desktop if you can to appreciate it fully - otherwise why not

Re: [LegacyUG] Comparing commercial websites

I do so hate videos and MUCH prefer the written word, but unfortunately, the site for the handout is a "dangerous site" according to McAfee! CE From: LegacyUserGroup on behalf of Gordon Findlay Sent: Wednesday, September

Hi Gordon, Thank you SO much for those links – EVERYONE who has been asking the ‘same old’ questions re which is best should do themselves a favour and watch this video and download the handout. THANK YOU … Susie Z From: LegacyUserGroup

Yep and that's more bang for the buck for Ancestry and Newspapers,com -- I'm not sure of the relationship between the two but what I noticed was last year when renewing my Ancestry membership I was offered a 'bonus' for a little extra fee I could subscribe to Newspapers,com. Perhaps I didn't read

While considering whether My Heitage is "worth it" and wondering about other sites, you might find this presentation from Sunny Morton useful: https://www.rootstech.org/videos/sunny-morton If you like watching hour-long videos as much as I do, you might just look to the handout, which I found in

Agreed. It is an excellent program, but requires excellent computer skills to have it do and show what you want. Darrin was extremely helpful, but that wasn't enough. CE From: LegacyUserGroup on behalf of Donna

Re: [LegacyUG] Is MyHeritage Worth It?

Hi I don't mind sharing my family info and hard work with strangers (even though I have funded it all too!). It would be a nice feature if there was a way to credit the researcher in an obvious way on the various sites that allow GEDcom's to be uploaded. Uploading living info isn't good

Re: [LegacyUG] Is MyHeritage Worth It?

Hah! That's how I hit upon the fact that a cousin had posted my data on his website - a rare name in the family showed up in a search and he posted *all* the living info. He was fine with removing it. But the other person who had taken the info and put it on *his* website was slow to respond

That's really the way to do it. I know people who have had problems with a "collaborative" effort where others were able to add or edit information on the website - things really got messed up! Sherry On Wed, Sep 6, 2017 at 12:38 PM, DonnaMcR wrote: > I have had my website

I have had my website (created with the Legacy software and hosted by GoDaddy) for many years. I get responses, questions, and comments literally all the time. Collaboration takes place by e-mail. I get good response on Google searches, meaning I run into my own research all the time.
