Summary: Turbo Tax - don't spy us!!!
Review: I installed Turbo Tax 2002 and only after a long time I realized
they also installed a spyware. A shame! Besides that, they created
this very weird directory in my machine c_dilla, the activation was
full of restrictions, I uninstalled it (for obvious reasons) and when I need to print my tax return again I could not, I received a message from the installer saying: "This Intuit product is no longer
available. Please call 1-800 333-2917" (a useless number).
I won't use it again!!!

Summary: They gave themselves 5 stars??
Review: After all the problems and crap that Intuit took for the activation/spyware issue, now they place the newspaper apology on Amazon and give themselves 5 stars?? I'm completely disgusted, and will not use any Inuit product for at least several years while I observe their new track record.

Summary: TurboTax Apologizes To Customers
Review: I'm with TurboTax and we wanted to ensure that everyone has a copy of the open apology letter that we publicly posted on www.turbotax.com and featured in advertisements in today's USA Today and Wall Street Journal. Thank you.An Open Letter To TurboTax Customers In response to feedback from our customers, I want you to know that we're making an important change to TurboTax software and have removed activation technology. The new TurboTax for 2003 coming later this year can be used fully on multiple computers. Last year, some TurboTax customers were inconvenienced as a result of being prevented from using the software on multiple computers. While many of you had no problem, some of you did. And that's what concerns me most. I want to personally apologize for any frustration you may have experienced due to the restrictions that came with our use of anti-piracy technology. I've talked one-on-one with quite a few customers, so I know this caused some of you considerable hassle and inconvenience. You told us that you want the flexibility to install and use TurboTax on multiple computers, and we heard you, loud and clear. We responded back in May by committing to remove the technology from TurboTax for 2003 and now, we've expanded our license agreement so you can use TurboTax fully on multiple computers to do returns for yourself and members of your household. We've also made it possible for you to use your current 2002 version of TurboTax fully on multiple computers. But that's not all. We're making the things you value most about TurboTax even better. The new TurboTax will give you even more confidence that your return is accurate and complete. We will help you get the most from your deductions. And the new TurboTax will thoroughly handle any changes going on in your life that affect your taxes. Let me assure you that we are working harder than ever to earn your confidence and trust. This is, and always will be, of the utmost importance to us. Sincerely, Tom Allanson, General Manager

Summary: TurboTax 2003
Review: I got the email to renew for 2003. I never did uninstall c_dilla from 2002 and looked toward the intuit web site for uninstall instructions. Funny thing, not a single word on last year's fiasco, not the safecast uninstaller. In other words, they just want to bury the mistake rather than owning up to it.
I'm going to wait to see how this one plays out. I am not renewing now. Suggest you don't do either.

Summary: Don't Buy 2003 either
Review: I just visted (10/2/03) the turbo tax website to see for myself if Intuit had learned from their mistakes. They haven't. The spyware is still there for 2003(just in a different form) and the nightmare activation process is still there with their excuses. I'll be switching products this year after 9 years of loyal use. Good bye turbo tax!

Summary: Used Tax Cut This Year!, Thank you.
Review: Thanks to everyone who posted reviews revealing Turbo Tax's bs. I bought H&R TaxCut. It was great. I suggest anyone reading this to never buy another TurboTax product ever, of course, if you've read any of the 500+ negative reviews I'm sure you've already made that decision.
