Many will still consider it a beta until they release a service pack.

I assume that means that Vista is also effectively a beta version.

Because Quicken 2004 Premier Home and Business is still a supported
product and this issue arose months ago and Intuit's response is
always upgrade. Actually, that is not true -- sometimes they just
ignore the issue completely:
http://www.quickenforums.com/thread.jspa?threadID=600011338&messageID=600055600

I believe I came across a report of the problem in Quicken 2007
running on Vista (but I don't have the reference as it didn't provide
a solution) which Intuit will probably not respond to until it has
2008 available at which time the res pones will be upgrade.

On my machine, when I press OK, the page displays without the section
that would have been generated by the script.
