When all else fails, here is a sure-fire way to access the files:

1. On your menu bar at the top of the screen, select "Go to"
2. Select "Keyword" from the pull-down menu
3. Type in "ftp" (don't use the quotes)
4. Click on the box marked "Go to ftp"
5. Click on the box marked "Other Site"
6. Type in "ftp.rootsweb.com" (without the quotes). Do *not* click on the box to prompt for userid and password.
7. Click on the directory marked "pub"
8. Click on the directory marked "usgenweb"
9. Click on the directory marked "wv"
10. Click on the county you are interested in
