I too have AnswerWorks installed.
I have never explicitly installed it so possibly it was installed by Intuit.
Unlike you, when I go to Control Panel|Add or Remove Programs, I do
see AnswerWorks as a choice.
You might try reinstalling TurboTax so that AnswerWorks gets properly
reinstalled.
You should then be able to see it in Control Panel|Add or Remove Programs.
Other than that you can start mucking around in the registry,
manually deleting entries and also deleting the associated files.
If it were me I try and reinstall and then go through Add or Remove Programs.
Good luck.

Mike

So, Secunia pops ups up and shows me a progy I was not aware of.
It is (Vantage Linguistics) AnswerWorks 5.0.
Google tells me lots of folks stuff this add-on. Yes, I use Intuit Turbo-Tax.
Yes, I use Quicken Will-Maker 2010. Seems both of these seem to
stuff this program. OK.
I know where the AnswerWorks 5.0 'stuff' lives:
c:\Program Files\Common Files\AnswerWorks5.0
CCleaner does not list it. Win/Add/Remove programs does not list it.
Question: Google tells me I can dig and find out which program is
tied to this current install. Very confusing to me. No how-to's shared.
Not surprising, I find that Vantage offers little un-install info other
than to figure out which 'big' program installed this Vantage helper;
and, then just delete the 'big' program. OK................. :(
Interesting to note that all the 'AnswerWork5.0' files are dated in
the range of 5/24/04 - 6/13/08. The file, awreadme.htm, is of next
to zero help!
I suppose I might be able to just click the above link: then, DELETE.
Opinions/suggestions welcome.
