Just for the record (none / 0) (#11)

... I've been using TaxAct Online for 4 or 5 years now, because they're the only one that consistently has ALL the federal forms. All the others charge for Schedule E and sometimes other forms as well. (Also, their website is very simple, thus fast, and doesn't constantly try to sell you upgrades -- you get one upgrade offer and that's it.)

Anyway, I have not seen the subsequent spam noted by one poster, tho I don't doubt that in the course of electronic filing, sometimes our data does get hijacked, much as has happened with banks, medical records, etc. As to whether it happens at the filing site or at the IRS... seems to me either could happen.
