You can disable the option to access the internet when you start Legacy - in the Legacy Home tab, click on the Options button and select Options. On the Internet Options tab, select "Never check the internet unless a link is clicked". We have a lot of major new features in Legacy v6, including Research Guidance, Publishing Center, Legacy Home tab (which includes options for Birthday/Anniversary and To-Do Item reminders), an "interactive" Potential Problems Report, the ability to sort events chronologically and a ready way to sort children's lists.

I _bought_ v.6 only to find out that it was the biggest memory hog of any program I have ever owned (Musicmatch Jukebox held the record until I got Legacy v.6). I have Win98SE and Legacy v.6 used 55% of my resources taking me down to less than 5%. When you reach 5% in Windows 98, it's reboot time. WinXP doesn't have the resource problem and I suppose Win2000 doesn't also. So, I re-installed Legacy v.5 and it runs well (but it still uses 40% of my resources). In looking at v.6 the only "improvement" I could discern was that it connects you to the Internet every time you start it (thus has some kind of browser built in). Since I want to choose whether or not I'm connected to the Internet, I don't think I'll ever be using v.6 again, even when I get a new computer which is going to have to be pretty soon. -- Dan Cooley Sheila Chonko wrote: > Thanks Sherry but I uninstalled v. 6 & reinstalled v. 4.

I have a question for the group. If I have downloaded a video, and put it into Legacy, when I send out the CD's will the video, sound, etc. automatically load onto their CD, if I include the folder, Multi Media files? My son plays in a blues band, and I want to share his great talent with other family members. Am I explaining this well enough? Thanks for any help you can give me!
