So you are eager to have the use of the CHECKFREE funds transfer
service added to Intuit or Quicken?
   About Checkfree...
How enthusiastic are you about a service that
   (1) Leaves you with UNLIMITED LIABILITY for unauthorized
transfers, even overdrafts far above the amount in your account.
   (2) Relies on a password of four (count'em) FOUR digits,
not even letters and digits, for security.  You can't
even change your password online.

This is frightening.  I will post a more detailed review of the
Mac checkfree software in a few days, but I thought I owed you
this warning now, before you lost your life savings (and more).
