Ubuntu
firefox-3.0 package

Unable to use TurboTax online to do my taxes.

Asked by fdc722

I use TurboTax to do my taxes online every year and TurboTax says the the Firefox browser is not supported. It is for Mac and Windows. I really like Ubuntu and want to make it my main OS for good without having to crawl back to Windows for special projects. Thank you!

Online services have a choice of choosing which platforms they support for their applications. Unfortunately, some do not take the time to support Linux. There is a Firefox plugin that can fool these sites into thinking that you're on Windows.
Check out this package:
