Latterday Saints
« on: Monday 07 March 05 06:57 GMT (UK) »
I tried just now to log on to the Latterday Saints website at www.familysearch.org and got this message

"F A M I L Y S E A R C H    I N F O R M A T I O N
 
 Your access to FamilySearch.org has been temporarily suspended. Your computer or a computer at your location has sent a large volume of requests to FamilySearch.org and as a result access to FamilySearch.org from this location has been temporarily suspended. Usually the suspension occurs when a computer uses software to automate requesting information from FamilySearch.org from any computer in your location. If this message appears again, contact the vendor who sold you your software to obtain the latest release."*

I have never sent 'a large volume of requests' to them and haven't used their kind services for a week or two anyway. As for being able to automate requests by software I don't have the knowhow.
Has anyone else been suspended in these circs?

I had this message once, but it was just a glitch - I tried again a little later and was able to use the site with no problems.

I just tried a search and had no problems, it probably is just a glitch.

Hi

I encountered this message from that site for the first time yesterday, but, as stated, it cleared after a few minutes.

cheers

While were on about this site does anyone else find it really annoying that when you search you can only do it by country?

I was searching for Thomas Matthews but ended up with over 3000 names to search thought because I couldn't state the county. With that many names you can bet I missed the info I wanted

If it is info from the 1881 Census you're after you get the option to choose County and then City/Town but you have to choose the Census option first on the main menu on the left.

Thanx Darren

The problem is the IGI and Pedigree files - you only get the country option on that one
