It was more work than either of us anticipated, and even before we could complete the tedious task of merging, creating and uploading the files, we were inundated with requests for changes to be made. Making changes and adding data isn't as easy as you would believe, as the entire file must be uploaded with any change, and that takes hours. My and Lisa's lives have changed, and there is much demand on our time from our families, our work, and our other interests. We are no longer able or willing to devote all our time to this project. It will, however, stay online, and I find that I receive many emails from people who discover data from the Project, and we continue to gain members to the Hancock list because of contacts from the Project. I have an idea for those who wish updates. Perhaps, instead of having the data for each chart as part of the Project. The Project can describe the Chart as to the lineage, continue to list the researchers of that Chart, but in addition to their name, address and email, we can put a link to their personal Genealogy pages. Each person can create their own family pages, and our link will take anyone there who is interested in viewing it. That way, each researcher can update their own page whenever they have new data, but the Project pages will only change when there is a need to change links, or email address, etc. This will, also, prevent the argument that we had about whose data is correct, when we were trying to merge the GEDCOM files of several researchers. Each can present their own version. As soon as I can, I will add the address of webpages that I have, already, listed on our LINKS page, and anyone who has a Homepage and wishes me to link to it, please, let me know, and let me know from which Chart to link.

Hello list: Does anyone know whether The Hancock Genealogy Project-Worldwide is making corrections/changes/additions, etc? I ask this since I haven't received a response to several change requests I made many months ago. I am assuming it is therefore, inactive. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Jim Hancock

Hi Beth...and Julia, These are not my Hancocks, but I would be willing to buy these photos and have them sent to Julia so she can post them on the Hancock Project site for all of us to see. Then if a descendant comes along, the pictures will be there for him/her/them. Is 'Somebody's Links' a rootsweb list ?

The subject line may contain "***Virus Alert***" or mention SULFNBK.exe. If you receive a copy of this message, you should ignore it. Do NOT pass it on as this is how an email hoax spreads. You may receive a copy of this message from addresses that you recognize. DO NOT DELETE ANY FILES FROM YOUR COMPUTER.

The email message may appear in part as follows: "A VIRUS could be in your computer files now, dormant but will become active on June 1. Try not to USE your Computer on June 1st. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS BELOW TO CHECK IF YOU HAVE IT AND TO REMOVE IT NOW." "No Virus software can detect it. It will become active on June 1, 2001. It might be too late by then. It wipes out all files and folders on the hard drive. This virus travels thru E-mail and migrates to the C:\windows\command' folder."

what about those with aol?

Thanks :o))

What do I do now ?? I already deleted the file. Will my computer still work alright ??

Thanks Bill. I researched also and found that it is a hoax. There is VIRUS warning making its way around the Internet about SULFNBK.EXE. It is a HOAX. SUBLFNBK.EXE is part of the Windows operating system. There have been no reports from CERT, McAfee orMorton concerning any type of virus of this nature. I did a search for this file and it is a standard file for windows. Bill Cook Just what is SULFNBK.EXE? It's a utility shipped as part of the Windows 98 operating system that allows users to restore long file names. Thus, anyone using the Windows 98 operating system would find this file on their system. If the hoax were received by these users, and believed, many might delete the file thinking their antivirus software had somehow failed to detect the virus. In fact, it wouldn't be the first time signature-based scanners failed to detect a new virus, making the entire hoax even easier to believe. > TO CHECK YOUR COMPUTER DO THE FOLLOWING: > > Go to the Start button > Go to Find or Search > Made sure the find box is searching the "C" drive. > type in: SULFNBK.EXE > Begin Search > If it finds it, highlight it. > Go to "File" and delete it. > Close the dialog box > Open the Recycle Bin > Find the file and delete it from the recycle bin. > You should be safe. > > The bad part is: You need to contact everyone you have sent ANY E-MAIL > in the last few months.
