There IS a way to deactivate Reading Life, I think under one of the settings there is a "keep track of my reading somethings" (sorry, Kobo is not in my area right now for me to check).

I don't like the new firmware, I don't like the way it's displaying fonts (some are heavier than they were on 2.4.0), but I can't be arsed to change back until it crashes and burns again.

Apathy, thy name is VirgoGirl.

Good luck with getting any compensation Kobo, you'd be lucky to get a free book. One of my friends bought a book that wouldn't download into his desktop ADE (he has a Nook), Kobo refused to refund his money despite nothing being mentioned on the website that it was only available to download onto his (nonexistant) Kobo. Apparently "all sales final". Idiots.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/

It works in Windows 7, as well as Linux. It is as simple as connecting to your PC/laptop and running the program using it to find and open the "KoboReader.sqlite" file, in your .kobo folder. Selecting the "Browse Data" tab, then "user" from the dropdown "Table:" gives you a look at how many fields and the type of data in them. (You should be able to replace the data in each field with a zero "0", except the last one with "false"). You enter the
INSERT INTO user VALUES ("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0","false") in the "SQL string: box of the Execute SQL tab. Then select the "Execute query" button. You may have more or less "0" entries depending on the number of fields your "user" table has.

Luck;
