Thanks Mike, just picked that up myself. Bit naughty of FMP to suggest it wasn't been used properly, after all it didn't allow unauthorised unlocking.

This rather reminds me of the 1901 census, there was a similar 'hidden' link which enabled you to find a whole family. Many people exploited it until the 1901 company (can't remember who it was now) found out about it and spoilt our fun. They deliberately hid the links because people were getting something free (notice I use perfect English and don't say 'for free'). Spoil-sports.

And can you blame them. They are a commercial enterprise that has to make money. It takes a lot to digitise and index these records and they have to charge to make it work. As an example if you were to approach TNA and ask the cost of licencing (not buying) the images for the 1911 census and you will be quoted in excess of £3million and then you have to pay to index the 8.5 million pages.

Congratulations, David. "Free" is an adjective, not a noun as everyone else seems to think.
