    3. I do not understand the list of compatible operating systems with the exclusion of XP. I have Windows XP -until downloading and installing SP 1&2 I had no problems using MrSid with any of the census images on Ancestry. After installation of SP 1 & 2 the images would download-blurred to the degree they could not be read and MrSID features would not work. I could switch to HTML viewer without any problems. My Nortonantivirsus subscription was up for renewal,. I renewed with an upgrade to Norton 2005. Now I am unable to download the census images using MrSID. I receive an error message and am unable to go to HTML. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have not visited with anyone from Microsoft or Norton about the problem.

    3. Sue, I do not have the Norton problem, because I have not yet upgraded to Norton5, but I certainly do with MrSiD. Did you read the information that I sent through from Ancestry.com regarding MrSiD?
