If they don't I'll go buy other software and return their spy software for a refund. > You would rather uninstall Cdilla continuously and complain about > Intuit making you reactivate the software than accept that cdilla must > be installed for TTax to run, and that the way you are using SpyBot is > what is making you have to reactivate all the time. If Intuit doesn't back off its incredibly arrogant, stupid move, I'll get a refund and use someone else's product. Then I'll start looking for a replacement for Quicken. > If you don't want Cdilla on your system, that is your choice. TTax > requires it to run. Wow, you're just full of stunning insights today. Yes, I know these things. And yes, I know what to do if they don't back down. You think Intuit is just fine and dandy for having done this. I don't. > Itreinstalls it every time it is activated.
