EXCELLENT customer service! The product is really good too... I had a small issue and they responded to my contact within about 15 minutes and they gave me a free month on my account.

The only problem I have is, if I highlight a word or group of words and I want to take it off, it is very difficult to undo. I spent 2.5 hours last night trying to do just so.
