From my understanding, all this search feature does is search your family file, and attempt to connect it to information on databases that are on Ancestry.Com. It does not put your information online unless you submit your tree to the OneWorld Family Tree. Even then, it does not list the information of living individuals. For me, I come up as Living Sewell.

I don't think it's any different than the feature they had before, where you would run the web report and it would locate documents with that same star system.

If you go to their site at http://ftm.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/ftm.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php and type in Web Search, you'll get some questions answered.
