With the popularity explosion of the Internet and e-commerce, veteran tax software company Taxware International, Inc., founded in 1964, developed an on-line tax system several years ago which offers Web mall owners and merchants a method for the automatic calculation of sales and international tax. The system is sold to Taxware's clients, such as Netscape, who then include the software in online storefront packages purchased by merchants. Online stores are periodically sold program supplements in order to keep up with changing tax laws. Scott Walters, vice president of research and development at Taxware, explained the company's new system in an exclusive WorldNetDaily interview.
