Where to start with Lithuanian genealogy?

Question: Where to start with Lithuanian genealogy!?

Does anyone know a good way to start researching one's Lithuanian heritage!? I've done a little bit of looking on Ellis Island's website to see ship logs, but I want to trace further back than my great-grandfather (which requires finding Lithuanian documents) and also to find more records here in the U!.S!. pertaining to my great-grandfather!. Help is appreciated!. I'm hoping for something online - I hear Ancestry!.com just spams the crap out of you, though!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have a World Deluxe membership with Ancestry!.com and have yet to be spammed by them!. When you become a member, they will send you a monthly newsletter telling what new databases they have but there is no LAW (as if written in stone) that you have to keep receiving it!.
The Mormon site, www!.familysearch!.org, , has the countries AFGHANISTAN to ZIMBABWE (including Lithuania) listed as well as ANCIENT COUNTRIES/REGIONS and births/deaths "At Sea!."
If your ancestors were Jewish, try www!.jewishgen!.org!. Their country list goes from BELARUS to the USA (including Lithuania) by ancestral surname as well as Holocaust records and Cemetery records!. Or, you can search for listings in their ancestral village or town!.
Yahoo has 140,000 listings for Lithuanian genealogy sites, including these:
