I just installed my tax software and it put the c-dilla program cdac11ba.exe on my computer. I know i can remove it but will it affect my tax software?

You might want to read this thread about it at spywareinfo.com
http://www.spywareinfo.com/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=2474
If that link doesn't work, go to spywareinfo.com's forums, go to the spyware forum, spywatch, thread is TurboTax Spyware?
The thread has been read over 10,000 times!

If anyone knows something I don't about removing C_DILLA please let me know. I've tried all the usuall tricks but I'm still stuck - it won't go away!
Thanks in advance,
ray

Heres what i did to prevent it from running. Go to settings->control panel->Administrative tools->Services
Look at the list for c-dilla
Right click it and select properties, then under start up type select disabled.

Hello All,
Here's the experience I had just last night.
I installed TTax2002 on a Win 2k PC about 2 weeks ago but haven't really used it yet. Last night, that PC was warping out, wouldn't boot right, screen froze, kinda ugly stuff like that; had to boot to "Safe Mode" to start working on it. The cause appeared to be the service that would start CDAC11BA.exe. Disabling the service allowed for a no-problem boot. A Google search lead me to this site, among others.
Sure enough, deleting CDAC11BA.exe and "Disabling" the service was ineffective. In fact, TTax would re-create the file and restart the service when it was re-started.
Configuring "Tiny Personal Firewall 3.0", installed on the PC, to deny the file CDAC11BA.exe any resource access rights and disallowing TTax to install/start/mess-with any services seemed to stop CDAC11BA.exe TTax does seems to run ok with out CDAC11BA.exe running. My extent of testing was only starting up TTax and printing a test page of a form.
Jon
