Still TaxCut to me. :)[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#4)

Used TurboTax one year, 1988 I believe. It mis-figured an amount and caused me no end of headaches with the state and federal taxing authorities.

Starting in the mid-90's I started using TaxCut. Its been a good program for me though I refuse to e-file any longer because of privacy concerns with the 3rd party filers.

It is for this reason I won't do online tax services. I don't trust them with my personal and financial information.

having just read that wonderful PDF someone posted, I can say that TaxCut did not spam me, that I can tell.

See I run a firewall and get prompted when something wants to send information. Generally I say no unless I'm doing an update. And then the rules are not permanent. :)

But... having read that PDF I may give TaxAct a try for 2008.

Thanks,
