Quick Tax

What works

Installation; FAQ sidebar help (not main help); can complete a full tax return and save it, including usage of the EasyStep (interview-based) process as well as the more advanced entry directly into tax forms on screen.

What does not

Main help (CHM) didn't work for me, but I researched things on the Internet instead anyway. There are some graphical glitches, too, like multiple minimize/restore/close button sets on windows, or window icons not loading right.

Workarounds

What was not tested

Additional Comments

I use ies4linux for IE, and could not get the program to install properly into the standard ~/.wine directory. As per this forum thread[1] I needed to set WINEPREFIX to my ies4linux wine dir, so that QuickTax could find/see IE. After that, everything pretty much worked. As per this other thread[2] I also installed the Mozilla ActiveX Control as well as the Microsoft Visual C++ runtimes, which I got using the installer from here[3]. You may or may not need to do this; I suggest trying to run QuickTax without installing these other two.
