Karen, I'm glad you put the email response from Tim Pierce on the Andersonville site. I had already printed out his letter so I didn't have it in my files where I could send it to the list. I hope all our members will not let these spammers ruin things for all of us. It's happening on other sites too, so people shouldn't blame it on the Andersonville site. These people have just found a new way to throw their junk in our faces via the rootsweb sites. Be patient, it can be stopped. Just follow Tim's instructions. Judy Clark-Wick JWick@compuserve.com
