The free solutions are often the best for home users. I strongly recommend both of them... and I don't use Internet Exploder for anything... IE is notorious for weaknesses and viruses with their Active-X scripting. Firefox is free... faster and updated the instant a weakness is found. Their user to user support rocks too... and they have great addons... one called adaware that strips out all the annoying advertisements that pop up that IE can't.

I had to go to the Norton's web site and get a removal tool to actual remove all of Norton from the computers.

If it does than Norton was embedded in your system, then you will have to purchase a different anti virus program. Some computers are not experiencing any problems with Norton- some are, like both of mine.

RE: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Hi Mark, Yes, I know you cannot just delete SP3. I was on the phone with Dell for over 10 hours on Saturday and they removed it and got me a clean install of SP2. Norton was my final rescue, as they deleted Norton 360 2008 and installed the Norton I had last year. They first went to Ancestry with just deleting Norton 2008 and I had no issues. Then they installed Norton from 2007, and again I had no problems, so it is something with Norton 360 2.0 2008. I suggest if anyone has the same issues as I had, to go to their website for help. If you call them it will cost $69 but no charge to do a live chat with a tech. The tech was very helpful and patient and I was so very grateful! :-D Thanks Mark for responding to my call out for help! :) Darlene [EMAIL PROTECTED] You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. ~ C.S.

To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com Date: Tuesday, June 17, 2008, 2:07 AM Hi Darlene First you Internet provider is not IE 6. That is the web browser you are using. The ISP is completely different and should not make any difference to viewing a web page. While I do not use it, it may be worthwhile to try accessing ancestry.com with a different web browser called firefox2. (mozilla.com/firefox I am pretty sure.) I am not sure what you mean when you say that I had service pack 3 and had to delete it. You can not simply delete SP3. It needs to be uninstalled. Have a read of the microsoft knowledge base article here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950249. Of these methods I prefer using system restore if you have not added anything important since then. I know this is pedantic, but computers are very black and white, the grey is where they do not work. It is very likely that any uninstall of SP3 has left odd files on your computer. If you have no luck, and you had no trouble viewing ancestry.com before sp3 I would consider reinstalling the OS from scratch, but this will depend on how many applications you have installed and what backups you have and your level of understanding. The best way is to reformat your hard drive which means everything on it will be deleted. You will need backups for everything and anything you want. While this is a big step, if you have had XP on your computer for several years it is normally a great way to clean up your computer. I do my computer every 6-12 months and it is an enormous headache but it does tend to clear up all the little issues computers get.

Yes, Michelle, it was a Norton problem. This is what happened and the fix! But I spent 3 hrs. on the phone today with Norton. I let them access my computer and we tried going to Ancestry.com with certain things clicked on and off within the program. Then the tech deleted all of the program and the images at Ancestry.com could be viewed, once again. The tech next installed the Norton 360 that I had last year, and I still was able to access the images. I spent 10 hrs. with Dell on Saturday and Sunday, a nasty e-mail to ancestry.com yesterday, oops! and my plea to Legacy, and then 3 hrs. today with Norton, which was the problem.

Hi Chick others, My problem ended up being isssues with my Norton 360 2.0 2008. I have already stated, to the list, what happened, and so you may read it on Legacy! Thank you so much for responding to my cry out for help. I went through yours and everyone else's suggestions and nothing worked until we dealt with Norton 360 2.0 2008. I am writing to the list, as I know others with Norton might be experienceing the same problem I had! I am so sorry to the Legacy list, about taking up so much reading time, but it should end, now, that the problem has been resolved. I thank everyone for their patience! The pouring out of help and support was amazing! What wonderful people are on this list! I usually just post when I have a problem, as I am not a young woman, and need to do as much research as possible, in the years I have left! :-D Thanks everyone!

Ancestry's image viewer, etc. This issue is easily fixed in IE 7 by doing the following: Go to Tools, Internet Options. Click the Advanced tab. Click on the Reset button. Then click on the next Reset button. This completely resets everything in IE. Disables all add-ons, cleans the cache, cookies, etc. IE 6 and earlier does not have this easy reset function. And you must manually remove everything and DISABLE all the add-ons. I'm not sure that the problem is necessarily Norton. I do know that other people have similar issues, Hope this helps...

RE: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Hi Darlene First you Internet provider is not IE 6. That is the web browser you are using. The ISP is completely different and should not make any difference to viewing a web page. While I do not use it, it may be worthwhile to try accessing ancestry.com with a different web browser called firefox2. (mozilla.com/firefox I am pretty sure.) I am not sure what you mean when you say that I had service pack 3 and had to delete it. You can not simply delete SP3. It needs to be uninstalled. Have a read of the microsoft knowledge base article here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950249. Of these methods I prefer using system restore if you have not added anything important since then. I know this is pedantic, but computers are very black and white, the grey is where they do not work. It is very likely that any uninstall of SP3 has left odd files on your computer. If you have no luck, and you had no trouble viewing ancestry.com before sp3 I would consider reinstalling the OS from scratch, but this will depend on how many applications you have installed and what backups you have and your level of understanding. The best way is to reformat your hard drive which means everything on it will be deleted. You will need backups for everything and anything you want. While this is a big step, if you have had XP on your computer for several years it is normally a great way to clean up your computer. I do my computer every 6-12 months and it is an enormous headache but it does tend to clear up all the little issues computers get.

Darlene, At the risk of being asked if the topic hasn't been flogged enough and off topic to boot. I think in a way it does connect to using Legacy. Have you tried to access the images on a different computer? I cannot access the images on my computer Acer laptop Vista Home Premium, I can access them on my husband's computer HP desktop running XP, whatever the latest service pack is. Now I will hunch down to receive the flogging.

Just a thought... Are you using Internet Exploder or Firefox? I have much better luck with Firefox and I'm afraid the last Microslop security upgrade probably added a bunch of new permissions to Internet Exploder and it ... um exploded. I have a much better experience with firefox... and Legacy will use the routines as needed from Internet Exploder when you use the mapping function.

Re: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Darlene, One last thought- what version of Norton are you using? Norton is known to have caused some problems, it tended to clog up both my computers which then ran slow- I have heard that it has caused some other problems as well. I had to go to the Norton's web site and get a removal tool to actual remove all of Norton from the computers. Its funny, why would they have to proved a removal tool if it wasn't causing any problems. even if you turn it off it may have embedded itself into your system causing problems. I'm not a geek just know a lot of them, and this was their suggestion for you- actually use the removal tool to get rid of Norton's from your computer. See if that allows the images to be viewed. If it does than Norton was embedded in your system, then you will have to purchase a different anti virus program. Some computers are not experiencing any problems with Norton- some are, like both of mine.

Re: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Darlene, I have not been following this thread but I recall this problem being mentioned on another list and the following solution was offered: The problem seems to lie in the way the browser uses the information from the add-ons. Ancestry's image viewer, etc. This issue is easily fixed in IE 7 by doing the following: Go to Tools, Internet Options. Click the Advanced tab. Click on the Reset button. Then click on the next Reset button. This completely resets everything in IE. Disables all add-ons, cleans the cache, cookies, etc. IE 6 and earlier does not have this easy reset function. And you must manually remove everything and DISABLE all the add-ons. I'm not sure that the problem is necessarily Norton. I do know that other people have similar issues, Hope this helps...

Re: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Hi Darlene, You really should take this problem to Ancestry for assistance. They have a Help Desk (click on Help in the top right-hand corner of the screen when you're at their site), or there are message boards for peer support (click on Community in the bar at the top of the screen, or go straight to http://boards.ancestry.com/). From a quick look just now, I think the board at Topics Ancestry.com Ancestry Site Comments (http://boards.ancestry.com/topics.ancestry.ancsite/mb.ashx) might be the one you need right now.

RE: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Darlene, This is well off topic and I am only answering on list because this is becoming an increasing problem, so my apologies to those who know it all. This has nothing to do with Ancestry or any other software, but is a known problem between Dell and Microsoft - when SP3 is installed it also affects some AMD processors and other systems. You need to get rid of SP3 - easier said than done, and a complete uninstall of the o/s may be necessary. You are best advised to contact Dell and Microsoft. Microsoft even publish a tool which will stop SP3 automatically installing for 12 months.

RE: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Darlene, I'm been having many difficulties with Ancestry images as well, although my particular problem seems intermittent. It started when they upgraded the site with enhanced searching. I don't know if this is applicable to a frozen screen, but could your Internet Security and/or Block Pop-ups settings be causing this? You could try posting a query at their message board, but in my experience you won't get a response. You could call them, but again I find it difficult to get through. That said, I'm in the UK and their local number seems to be quite responsive.

If you are having problems with ancestry.com it will help if you state the brand of processor (intel or amd), the operating system (XP or Vista) and what service pack you are on. It has already been stated that an amd based computer with XP SP3 has known issues with ancestry.com and it is not the fault of the user. It is also worth mentioning which browser and version.

If you are having problems with ancestry.com it will help if you state the brand of processor (intel or amd), the operating system (XP or Vista) and what service pack you are on. It has already been stated that an amd based computer with XP SP3 has known issues with ancestry.com and it is not the fault of the user. It is also worth mentioning which browser and version.

I had automatic updates on my Windows XP Service pack two and it downloaded the update with service pack three. Over the weekend I had all kinds of problenms with My Dell desktop computer and finally got Dell tech support to help me. I had two viruses while I had Norton turned off, for 1/2 a day and so the techs reinstalled Windows and I have service pack 2, now. When I first did searches, at Ancestry.com, last evening, it accessed the census images fine, but when I tried it today, it freezes the screen, again!
