Summary: Must use Explorer as your default browser!
Review: Well, today is April 13, and this probably won't appear in time to help anyone, but I noticed that a couple of reviews below noted problems with the web-based help system, so here's the cure: YOU MUST USE MICROSOFT'S INTERNET EXPLORER AS YOUR DEFAULT BROWSER. (Or, at least not Apple's Safari. I didn't try Netscape, Chimera, Opera, etc.)

And since I'm here, I may as well chime in with the other folks who found this software buggy and unreliable. I did my taxes by hand until last year, when I bought TaxCut because MacWorld magazine gave it the nod over TurboTax. It worked fine, and I was happy: I have a rather simple return. So, I went with TaxCut again this year, but have had a number of problems. I've had to re-enter my non-cash charitable dedections at least four times, becasue TaxCut keeps losing them, even though I routinely save often. It's crashed several times for no apparent reason (on an iMac G4, 256 MB, OSX 10.2.4).

Well, next year's another year.

Summary: Your life for sale
Review: When I registered, I declined to receive offers from H&R Block "partners." However, they sold me out and I'm now getting e-mails I don't want. Just keep that in mind when you decide to register the product.

Who knows what other information they "passed on."
