My g/f has installed and run it (I told her not to). While I haven't 
actually seen it running myself, I've asked her all about it and 
apparently it has no way of exiting the program until the "information" 
has been given. I told her to give the computer the three-finger salute 
and it couldn't even produce the Close Window box. Hmmmm, if the ATO 
have hooked Ctrl-Alt-Del to prevent you from exiting their program, 
I'll be returning my copy with a note saying it contains a virus.
If the program will not run under Linux, I'll be sending the CD back 
anyway and complaining that I'm unable to read the format. The more 
people who do this, the better I reckon.
