This is not an Intuit rule they have control over ... the IRS sets up the perameters/rules that they must follow. If you wish to have the account deactivated then follow the instructions given in the prior answer (if you want to jump thru all those hoops).
If you want all the control then don't use any of the ONLINE programs where the IRS regulations must be followed. You can use the DOWNLOADED/CD version instead.
