Carrie, it looks to me like you received the e-mail off list. The rest of us 
did not receive it. That’s why Arnold put “OFF LIST” in the subject line. Did 
you mean e-mail addresses? I think that the sender’s address has always 
appeared.

Ok I wasn’t really dissing Norton, but I have worked in IT for over 30 years , 
teaching accounting software and databases, rebuilding systems when people have 
lost data dur to viruses. 

 

Norton has it place and it kept vigilantly up to date can look after the 
average home computer, 

 

but in my experience when a virus has got past it, it hasn’t the ability deal 
with it, and a much more robust package to deal with it, 

 

I am a little concerned that personal emails are appearing on this list 
though!!! Please see Highlighted below !!!!

OFF LIST

Carrie
        In the future, when you bad mouth a program, I would like for you to 
give us your creds and for you to support your statement about Norton.
        I think that we deserve to know if you are giving us fake news.
        Thank you,
          Arnold

  It can also be a virus on your own email account, using and old email on your 
system as a back door.
   
  I would suggest running a good anti-virus (Not Norton) in safe mode, 
   
  I would also amend you paypal password – on a different machhine and NEVER 
allow you pc to remember a banking or payment passwork
   
  You may be best taking it to be cleaned.
   
  But this is off legacy topic, so ill leave it there

  John,
  Contact MyHeritage direct.
  There are phone numbers and I think email is
  [email protected]

  Others have had refunds on complaint. MyHeritage tends to renew subscription 
without advance warning.  Their support has improved though seems to have some 
way to go.

  On the other hand, as Jennie says, it may not have been MyHeritage.

  Are you sure the email was definitely from MY Heritage not someone 

  spoofing their email. Sounds more like the later to me.

      About an hour ago I received an update notice for MyHeritage

      software. I clicked on the update to ensure that my computer was

      protected with the latest patches. Very shortly afterward I

      received an email confirming a subscription to My Heritage. I did

      not want it. I did not see anything asking if I wanted a

      subscription. It was paid via PayPal even though I had not touched

      my PayPal account.

      I had not used a MyHeritage subscription for a very long time

      because I did not like MyHeritage. Their software was however

      still on my computer. I was short of time and am not tech savvy so

      I clicked on the software update to protect my computer from

      “backdoor” cyber attacks. With hindsight, it was a bit odd because

      I do not recall ever receiving software update notices from

      MyHeritage in the past.

      I am disgusted with MyHeritage and fear that they will eventually

      corrupt Millennia / Legacy. When I have time, I will try to delete

      MyHeritage software from my computer.

      Be warned!

      John
