What has happened to the Rootsweb Guestbook that is so nice to put on our web pages? I went into it to make one for a friend for her web page and the link was gone! That link was also where I could go in and delete some of the messages. What do we do now? Thanks for your help.

Sherri- The threaded archives has been down for some time--no estimate that I'm aware of on when they will be back up. There is a notice about this posted on the HelpDesk page.

Does anyone know what is going on with the Archives for the Rootsweb Mail lists? I have browsed several lists on Rootsweb which I know have had recent activity and find nothing past September 10. Thanks. Sherri Hessick

Jack Go to : http://webusenet-dfw.tucows.com/ On the right side of the page you will see WS-FTp LE . It is a free program and I have been using it for years.

I would suggest http://www.download.com -- enter WS_FTP in the search box and press go. WS_FTP is a great program, easy to use, and free for home/personal use. Just make sure to download the LE version and not the Pro. -- Best Wishes, Carol Hepburn Phoenix, AZ USA

I use FrontPage as my editor also and use WE FTP95 LE to upload the files. It can be downloaded from Tucows.com and I'm sure other places. I think it's freeware. It's very easy to setup and use. Don't hesitate to write if you need any setup help.

No Jim, it's just that I put a 'u" at the end of the word. In the "real" world it has a "u" at the end of it. But it wasn't put there when the url was assigned. Being a creature of habit I always forget and automatically stick the "u' on the end.

Carmen, the Computer Shopper had a recent article on Windows XP (Bill and Alice's column). Bill had difficulty with XP and ended up having to buy some new cards and equipment. Also, it conflicted with Netscape. Another little shenanigan pulled by Microsoft to monopolize the market. Can't remember all the details but I ended up with a negative view of XP. ME has been an improvement for me, but here, too, I had to reinstall several programs from other companies. Wordperfect, Netscape and Omnipage. ME tried to convert me to an all Microsoft environment but I was able to work around it without having to upgrade any equipment or software. If you can handle the idiosyncrasies of Microsoft's dominance, you would be okay, otherwise proceed with caution with XP. Norma Jennings
