Not Bad, But Installation-Updating...Oh My! February 9, 2008

The product is great and it certainly speeds up doing your taxes and in the long run will save you a chunk of money from going to a tax professional in person. The biggest problem with the software is installation and updating. With my Windows XP, I had to go to the website for taxcut to find out why it didn't want to install and discover that to get around the problem I had to do about 20 steps. After that I thought, well it is done, but I was wrong. Everytime I need to update the software, here we go again! Fix it people and then I would rate it five stars!
 You may have to manually re-do your prior (2006) return February 9, 2008

Early on in the game, it asks you if you paid Alternate Minimum Tax (AMT) in 2006 (not 2007, 2006). If the answer is "yes", it directs you to IRS Publication 525 (which I googled for, as Tax Cut does not seem to supply it, at least not readily). I found the latter publication incredibly complicated, but finally realized that the gist was that I would have to re-calculate my deductions for LAST year (2006) before I could proceed with my 2007 return. Manually. No support from the Tax Cut program. (Unless possibly you used the program last year as well; I don't know; I did not.) Preposterous. I am taking up H&R Block's offer of a free refund. (The H&R Block "support" for Tax Cut costs $20/issue and somehow I doubt they would have helped me.) A useless product.
 Tax Cut may damage you Adobe Reader February 10, 2008

Tax Cut downloads Adobe Reader without giving me a chance to say no. The copy it installed was un-usable. I had to down load the Reader again from the Adobe site. That takes awhile unless you have broadband.
So far the tax software seems to work fine.
Beware of multiple state returns February 12, 2008

If you must file multiple state returns beware of this product. Although the product allows you to download the appropriate software for one state, additional states are extra. No surprise. HOWEVER, TaxCut does not prominently let you know which of their state software versions allow for nonresident or partial resident state claims (there are at least 12 Vermont being one). If you do pay the fee to download the software for one of these states, there is no way to get a refund for the disfunctional software. I do not recommend this software if you need to file in several state.
 Poor Design Of TaxCut '07 February 14, 2008

I've had the same issues described by others with access to TaxCut '07 from a non-admin account. Most significantly was the issue with security settings for my c:\program files directory being changed by the installation of TaxCut, resulting in the inability to run certain applications from non-admin accounts. Thankfully I have enough "geek" in me to go in and undo that damage, but pity the poor, average user who does not. Even with the security accesses restored, TaxCut will still not run from a non-admin login.
I've used TaxCut for several seasons prior and have been very satisfied, but with the '07 version ... not so much.
