I've used GnuCash. It takes a little patience to set up, and it's a bit
slow on startup, but it's otherwise very good. You'd have no trouble
getting useful information for tax out of it, if you set it up
correctly. If you want full tax information though, you'll have to make
the effort to enter things gross, and set up the account tree so you
have splits for tax data. It's not hard, but you'll need to read the
help before setting it up, and be prepared to throw away your first
couple of attempts until you have a clear picture of how it works.

Mike.
