I used the network in my office so I was able to go through the tax form very quickly. Just hit "save and continue" until you see the 500 points link. Then you'll see the blue screen confirming you of 500 points. Good luck.

I went back to HDVest to get the 500 MyPoints for filling out the tax returns. It turns out that you don't even have to push "save and continue" all twenty times. Just skip to the end and then click on the 500 point link at the bottom of the screen. Truly the easiest 500 points I have ever gotten.
Also, if you are looking for a new ISP, I recommend tryin Surfree for at least two months. The first month is free, the second month is $16.95 and you can lower the cost by using their ad banner. Also after 60 days of service they give you 2000 MyPoints -- that would put someone well on their way to the 20,000 MyPoint for 25,000 AA miles offer.
Just food for thought.

the only prob with Surfree is you have to pay for it. I just cashed in for the 25,000 miles after 3 1/2 months the only $$ spent were for CD's where it cost less than 1/2 price from the stores bought 1 once and not again from each place. even MORE.com bought some HBA stuff for the same price I would have paid anyway ($15.18 needed to be $15) yes I ordered alot of stuff but sent it back or cancelled memberships before the trail period ended( you get to keep the pts) the only prob can do the AA deal only once a yr so I'm now building up for a cash out on 1/2/01 if mypt is still around.

Update:
a) I could not see any way to get 250 + 500 mypoints through HDVest, even though the site still appears in Try It Out section of MyPoints. Not a blue screen, not a link to click on after sign up or tax filing. I wrote to MyPoints customer service...
b) Registering for icollector with credit card number (the full URL - they say it won't be charged unless you bid...) is now worth 300 MyPoints, not 180, and there is a blue screen.
