When I am very very board I look at my ignored matches as genes add the numbers so you might spot someone with several matches to your tree.

They are not on your computer - so don't worry. They are on your file in Genes Reunited. When you open your file they are there for you to view but do not get transferred to your pc.

Thanks for your replies, Well it looks as though I am struck with them. But as long as its not MY computer that is being cluttered up with them, I do`nt mind! I`ll just go on as before, just dsicard the ones I do`nt want.

Hi The ones i open, if i dont want them i disgard them. The rest i put a tick in the box and go to the bottem of the page and save. I never go into the ignored hot matches, i dont think that they are cluttering up your computer, i think they are cluttering up GR's Rodders

Hi Does anyone else have this problem, When I have a look at the hot matches, I click on discard match, if they are of no use to me, great, they disappear from the page, all is well, I also tick the little square saying, do`nt show me this again. Now I have just found, that when I out of curiousity, clicked on to 'ignored hot matches' LO AND BEHOLD, here were all the ones I had discarded, 26 pages of them, I tried again to click on dscard, and they simply shifted from the page and promptly appeard on the current page of hot matches!m guess what happens next, I again click on discard and they appear on the page of ignored hot matches, its a merry go round. HOW DO I GET RID OF THE ONES I DO`1NT WANT??? Its a nuisance having these unwanted pages cluttering up the computer.
