Guest stat monkey Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Quicken, TaxCut, TurboTax, McAfee renewals are no longer supporting ME as of later this year. I am migrating to stay with Qucken and TaxCut. But I wonder what the alternatives are? Avast has a free virus scan that still runs on ME
Guest Heirloom Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Re: ME RIP The only alternatives would be to take your finances and tax stuff to an accountant or do them manually yourself....I know, not a viable alternative!! The only viable alternatives would be for your migration to XP, Vista or some other OS.

Guest MrTom Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Re: ME RIP Try Taxact (http://www.taxact.com) for a Windows ME tax program. They have a free bare bones Federal version so you could give it a try to see if it acceptable to you. If you want more features or a state version you will have to pay a bit. Unfortunately, Taxact cannot import data from either Taxcut or Turbotax. In recent years I have been using Taxcut, but this year I will probably give Taxact a try and wait another year to get a new computer with an up-to-date operating system.

Guest O.J. Newman Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Re: ME RIP Hello: I see that TaxAct has already been mentioned as a Win ME compatible tax program. Take a look at the shareware AceMoney ( http://www.mechcad.net/products/acemoney/ ) for a financial program that still supports win 9x/ME. Cheers, O.J.

No writable CD. OK for Taxcut but I will need more storage for Quicken.
