Nancy, You don't need these programs. They have been placed on your computer when you have added software of some kind.

I remember Uncle Sam with his finger to his lips. I think that poster was most places I went and meant to scare me. I don't remember windshield stickers. I do remember we only had one car and Dad controlled it so I don't think there was much difference in pre-WWII and wartime car use. I do remember Dad somehow got flour and sugar and stored it in a non-car garage we had. We had a garage but our car was always parked outside in the alley and the garage contained supplies. I remember the sugar and flour because I think that wasn't supposed to be happening. Shoes were a serious problem in our family. Four kids all pre- or grade school age. My brother joined the Canadian Army in his teens before the US actually was at war. He was with the Manitoba Dragoons in Belgium. We only had radio in those days but we lived not far from a second run theatre which showed two films a night and I think we went there every other night. My father loved movies and would trade off the two older of the children (my younger sister and me) and let Mom stay home with the two youngest (my brother and baby sister). The movies included sing-a-longs, previews, comics, and newsreels which contained primarily war news. I was always frightened by the war news.

Does anyone on this list, using Windows Live Mail, have problems with it? Sometimes it won’t open and when it does open the messages don’t open. I have Googled and seems like all Windows Live Mail repair tools, etc, are in the form of programs that scan registry, etc. I use CCleaner, RegCure Pro, and AdvanceSystem Care. Also have Driver Update. I don’t see how another program can do anymore than those I have. Any suggestion? Wanda

G'Day Elaine, Kathy,Yvonne,Sally, Cora,Wanda Thank You all for your contributions re my computer. I have found AVG paid version was the problem, BIG TIME. I tried to delete it the normal way, no such luck, I did manage to eliminate some of it with IOBIT Uninstaller. I went from a spare 29.4gb to 14.4 gb. I have searched the net looking for ways to delete it, no such luck Like Yvonve it tells me its deleted, then it pops up. I have, like Yvonve tried every uninstaller, except Revo Right now, Im only using Microsoft Security Essentials, I am not very computer literate and am so nervous about using the computer,specially on line. My computer is so slow, even I can move faster than it.That's something believe me. I use Vista 32bit. Despite all they say about Vista, Im now used to it and like it. Unfortunately, it didn't come with a startup disc. Id like to wipe everything out & start again from scratch, dont know how to go about it I still have my iMac, but prefer my laptop with vista Thanks for listening to me, any ideas are welcome Annette Aksenov

As to the inventions, I'd have to go with the internet and satellite communications. While "just" a combination of computers, and, I suppose an "upgrading" of telegraphs, telephones, and televisions, it has drastically broadened our ability to obtain information (note. Not "truth", but versions of it <G>) As with many, I was tickled pink with my first computer, but when I compare where we were then, with where we are now, it's day and night. But, maybe I'm not giving enough credit to the cell phone/email device/messaging system/camera. Just think back to when you really needed a phone on the road, or wanted a picture of some great find, and ...you were stuck. As to journaling. Hmm. My family has never been much for that, but I try to create vignettes when a particular topic comes to mind. For example, when I was very small, we had a Chevy with a shelf behind the back seat under the rear window. Going across the flats of eastern Oregon at night, I was allowed to get up there. (Yes, I know....) The time frame was probably August, as there were hundreds of falling stars for hours. I was reminded of this when we had the meteor showers this year, but of course (in southern Arizona) didn't see quite as much. When something like this comes to mind, I query my sister and brother for their "take" on the subject. Amazing how differently we see, and remember things. Also, this weekend, my daughter, her toddlers, and I took a "road trip" from Tucson to Flagstaff, the part from Phoenix to Flagstaff is a trip I have taken hundreds of times over the years, as we lived in Flagstaff, and frequently made the trip to Phoenix for doctors' appointments and the like. I found myself regaling my daughter with "back in the day" stories. I was a bit appalled with myself, but she was very kind. She didn't once change the subject. So, I do find myself "passing down" the family culture, including "we were given a quarter; the movie was $.15, popcorn was $.10, and we called home 'collect' to have Mom pick us up" Pat In Tucson

I googled the title, and the following link appears to be the photo mentioned by Elaine. I have an approx 1910 picture of my dad and grandfather in front of the old hardware store, and there's a resemblance to the boy with the cart. http://m.pinterest.com/pin/166211042467953586/ Regarding inventions: Certainly the computer and digital camera has my life radically. Chemical photography allowed us to preserve visual memories, but photographic reproductions using chemicals were time consuming and expensive. In the late 1970s had taken it on myself to make duplicates of old family photos after parents and uncles passed on, and I built a darkroom to do so. However, I would go into the darkroom at 9PM and come out at daylight, and only made relatively few reproductions. Chemicals and paper were very expensive for me. There was no way that I could reproduce all of those pictures for everyone. Now, however, I can quickly (relatively) scan negatives, pictures, and 35mm slides, and place them on a CD or DVD and distribute them to siblings and cousins everywhere. And unlike in the darkroom, I don't have to spend 15 or so minutes making test prints to ensure pictures are properly exposed. Nor do I have to find places to dry large numbers of prints. Instead, every printed reproduction is quick, easy, and perfectly exposed, including color pictures. And digital color prints are more long lasting than they were in the 1950s, provided OEM ink is used. Canon color ink is supposed to last for 75 years. . Funny how back in 1984, my wife said I'd never use my new Apple 2e toy, and later my local manufacture IBM clone 286. I was constantly on them for work use and genealogy. I then told my wife that she needed to get on the computer as well. Her comment was "I'm not getting on that thing until you clean up that mess in here". So, from 1984 to the present, she never got on the computer here in my little office. She has been on the laptop that we bought back in Windows 98 days, though --- to shop online. She never expected that to happen, either. In about 2006 or so, a mechanic told me that man landed on the moon with no more computer power than the computer in my 1991 van. And digital cameras? I've missed so many pictures in the past because film was expensive. Now there's no reason to "waste" a picture -- just take lots of pictures, keep only the good ones, and delete the rest. And they're great for taking pics of genealogy records as well. They save lots on copy machine fees. This is a great time to be retired and into genealogy, museums, and web sites. We've come a long way since my grandfather opened a sheet metal store in Minco, OK in 1891. By the way, because deadly ticks with "tick fever" forced cattle drives headed to Abilene, KS, from Texas and Indian Territories to keep moving westward clear into Colorado, a new, shorter route had to be developed. As a result, a new railroad penetrated deep into Indian Territory, with the end of the railroad being Minco, OK. My little home town became the end of the Abilene Trail in 1891. (It wasn't until 1920 and later that the Abilene Trail started to become known as the Chisholm Trail.)

I remember that before my parents died, my husband and I were visiting and my dad told us of his (not real) plans to computerize the house ... I think he envisioned some kind of robotic servant bringing him stuff and doing various things. It was kind of fun to think about. Following that silliness I started thinking how neat it would be to have all my recipes available to me on a monitor in the kitchen, but I didn’t truly think it would be possible and couldn’t fathom how we could rewire the house to be able to do that. Not too long after that we did get a computer, one called a jet lite or something like that. It was pre-windows anyway. I do remember it had those big, truly floppy disks. I learned how to do WordPerfect on it and could do my lesson plans on it. (I was a teacher.) I was hooked. But it crashed. On to bigger and better things ... have had PCs with almost every OS since then, starting with Win95 I think, except Millenium (?) and now Windows 8. I like my 7, thank you very much. But hey, I liked Vista too. Anyway, we have wi-fi, don’t need to rewire the house. I can haul my laptop to any room in the house I want, can even print wirelessly. Unfortunately the sad thing is: most of the recipes I expected to access still need to be typed up, so that hasn’t gone exactly as planned more than 20 years ago. I could scan them. Or photograph them. Hmm. I may be onto something! Connie My comment about the photo which is quite charming of a young delivery boy dressed in a shirt, tie and shorts, with a wooden push cart, prompted me to comment that my father was born in 1888, and can you imagine the changes he saw in his life time. I was blessed with him being with me til the late 1960s. That prompted the question of me suggesting digital cameras. But I will again say here, the personal computer is the great invention of my lifetime. Feel free to talk about it. How many here are keeping journals along with their genealogy programs? Elaine

Hi Elaine, I am not keeping a journal, but I am in the process of writing my own personal history in hopes that I can pass down to my posterity "who I am and was." It becomes quite poignant when you begin to rehash childhood memories......and as I move along in my writing, in each era of my life, I see the progress that I have made as a person. Hopefully some of my personal experiences might be a guiding light for grandchildren and gr-grandchildren and on and on. The greatest invention during my lifetime that has greatly impacted my life is the "By Pass Machine" that is such a medical miracle for so many. In 1995, I caught a flu virus and it destroyed my heart - almost immediately. In May of that year I went into the hospital and received a heart transplant on August 28. Nearly eighteen years of added life has allowed me to see grandchildren born, gr-grandchilden born, graduations, marriages and just all of the everyday experiences that we often take for granted. I am grateful for the blessings of modern medicine and dedicated doctors. My mother died in 1960 at age 40 - if they would have had the ability to transplant then, I would have enjoyed so many more years with her than I had. I know my family is grateful for that little machine that had such a huge part in my miracle. Oh, I can't forget my donor family who in their greatest time of sorrow gave me a second chance at life. I hold them dear in my heart. This probably is not exactly what you wanted but for some reason I felt impressed to share.

Everyone too worn out from the Holidays to give this much thought? My comment about the photo which is quite charming of a young delivery boy dressed in a shirt, tie and shorts, with a wooden push cart, prompted me to comment that my father was born in 1888, and can you imagine the changes he saw in his life time. I was blessed with him being with me til the late 1960s. That prompted the question of me suggesting digital cameras. But I will again say here, the personal computer is the great invention of my lifetime. Feel free to talk about it. How many here are keeping journals along with their genealogy programs?

Hi Annette, Following is the site I used to work with a technician. You can either call or work with someone online. I prefer to work online and type my questions. The gal that I got today was the third try for me to get a tech, and she was great. They will want to work inside your computer via remote access. You will be able to see everything they do. So far she removed all of the traces of AVG. I was using the free. I would think that if you were using the paid version she can surely get help. My tech removed AVG manually. You can use all the uninstallers there are but they won't clean AVG from your computer. Annette, I wouldn't hesitate to get help from AVG. I think that at this moment they are getting many many complaints. I hope you find a solution. Take care.

Elaine and Kathy Champion, Thanks to the both of you for you advise and help concerning my AVG problem. Finally this afternoon I found a AVG Tech that was knowledgeable enough to remove AVG from my computer. I have to say that I would certainly never put AVG back on my computer. It just simply found a home in my programs, my users folder, FireFox Add On's, Registry, my Uninstall and Install program - you name it was there. It would tell me it was uninstalled and then an hour later it was back. But, keep your fingers crossed for me - I am still not feeling like celebrating a victory yet. I think I have every Uninstaller invented on my computer - but will leave on i0Bit and Revo. Again my gratitude to you.

I like and use one Aieesoft program. I like them. I have not heard that comment before about updating. I know that Real Player (I own a version of it) does make you buy upgrades to its programs. So some do, some don't. If it's a major version, say from 10 to 11, then I suspect most require paying to upgrade. The giveaways are for the specific version. Anyway, this is simply to say I do like Aiseesoft. My cable went down last night, I think everyone was writing and calling home. Happy Easter to everyone!
