Intuit's TurboTax and H&R Block's TaxCut might be the most popular tax software for do-it-yourselfers, but they're certainly not the only ones that can do the job.

Even so, they're most popular for a reason -- they're good at what they do, ranking first and third, respectively, on TopTenREVIEWS' 2008 Online Software Report. In fact, nine of the 10 products on its list rate good or better, based on intuitive navigation, novice-friendliness, ease of installation/setup, feature set and help/documentation/search capabilities.

Here's what made the cut -- the most expensive being a nickel shy of $45 -- with a brief synopsis why.
