However, once you have their product forget about ever contacting them for support. The only email addresses I have been able to find do not work. I will have to find some other NR software.

There are many options for reducing noise. For Mac or Windows users, I recommend these 2 options: Noiseware: at http://www.imagenomic.com/ and Noise Ninja at http://www.picturecode.com/ The best way to know if they work for you is to test them. The worst noise in my opinion is colored noise. This can look like christmas tree lights in your photos (especially in your shadows). In Photoshop, you can convert to LAB mode and blur the A and B channels about 3-5 pixels using Gaussian Blur. That can help a lot. I agree that when you print, a lot of the visual noise goes away. In fact, it can help your photos look sharper and more natural. I have 14 tips for making better low light photos in the following two articles. Some of the tips will allow you to reduce noise before taking the shot. Like with audio, that's the best time to "fix" things: http://imagingbuffet.com/?p=210 and http://imagingbuffet.com/?p=215 All the best, Andrew Darlow Editor, The Imaging Buffet http://www.imagingbuffet.com Hey Chris:
