I'm in the UK, and the registration is asking me for valid state and zip code. Clearly I'm not going to be able to fill in any values it understands.
Any benefit to the registration or am I fine just leaving it?
Cheers, Ian

Register using any valide city/Zip. For example Mountain View, CA 94043 which is Intuit address
That will prevent Quicken nagging you all the time. Otherwise, no necessity :-)

How about program updates and use on more than one computer?

Nobody has to "register" any software product. It is a marketing tool only. It is designed to obtain PII and demographics for future contacts to sell your more stuff.
If you do want to be annoyed by the popups, put in phony information. Hey, put in Intuit's address , phone number, etc.
Gee, I never thought of that, I've been using your address, phone number, etc. ;-)

No wonder Intuit sends all that Junk mail to that address :-)
Well...ish. Depends if they also use it for authentication, e.g. installation of software updates or checking for valid licensing codes etc.. That's what I was worried about - more than happy not to be spammed, considerably less happy to suddenly be cut off from use or the ability to apply updates.
Cheers, Ian
Worst case scenario: If you're ever "cut off," register.
