Odds and Ends: Customers lament changes in Quicken 2005; NetBarrier/T-Mobile conflict?

Customers lament changes in Quicken 2005 Steve Hechtman reports that Quicken 2005 has introduced a frustrating limitation for users with more than one credit card from a single financial institution:

"Yesterday I upgraded from Quicken 2002 for the Mac to the current Quicken 2005 for the Mac. I wish I had not. My wife and I each have our own Quicken MasterCard. One for her and one for myself. For downloading purposes, MasterCard requires your social security number to be your ID. (Confirmed by MasterCard tech support). This means separate ID numbers for each credit card. However, Quicken 2005 allows only one ID number per financial institution (confirmed by Quicken tech support). Therefore, only one credit card per financial institution will download your transactions into Quicken 2005. MasterCard tech support told me that they have many disgruntled Quicken 2005 users who have two or more credit cards at the same financial institution."

Meanwhile, CNET is carrying a story stating that Intuit customers are complaining about changes in Quicken 2005, including the elimination of support for Quicken interchange format (QIF). QIF files have long been used to save Quicken data and import transaction records in a format Quicken can read.
