Cmon Roy, he has a *right* to complain about anything he wants. This is Usenet
after all. Just as you seem to want to use your *right* to complain about his

I had considered trying the updated Yanoff product. But I too hate those
annoying reminders. So the review saved me the trouble of loading up the trial.
