Dear Listers: Be careful about low-cost Family Tree 2006 Deluxe offers. I purchased one for $17.95 from an Ohio dealer identified on this list-serve. I had nothing but problems installing the disk. After numerous, lengthy e-mails with the vendor to resolve the installation problems, the vendor finally concluded there was a irremediable installation problem and issued a Return Merchandise Authorization. Sadly, I was never able successfully install FTM 2006 Deluxe to begin constructing my family tree. The deal was too good to be true.
