This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D (the “Original 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2004, as amended on May 13, 2004. Unless otherwise stated herein, the Original 13D, as previously amended, remains in full force and effect. Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Original 13D, as amended.
Item 1.	Security and Issuer
Item 2.	Identity and Background
The first paragraph of Item 2 is hereby amended and restated as follows:
This Statement is filed by William V. Thoms (“Thoms”) and Susan E. Thoms (“Mrs. Thoms”) as tenants in common who own 670,251 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) (each, a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”).
Item 3.	Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 4.	Purpose of Transaction
The first sentence of the second paragraph of Item 4 is hereby amended and restated as follows:
On August 16, 2004, Zions Bancorporation (“Zions”) purchased 2,363,636 shares of Common Stock from Quotesmith pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2004 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), as amended on May 7, 2004, by and between Quotesmith and Zions, representing approximately 32.3%(1) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Item 5.	Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The information contained in Item 6 is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
(a) As of the date of this Amendment, each of Thoms and Mrs. Thoms is the beneficial owner of 670,151 shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, representing approximately 9.2% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.
The information in this Amendment (including Schedule 1) with respect to Zions and the Bland Parties is based solely on information provided by Quotesmith to the Holders. As of the date of this Amendment, each of Bland, Mrs. Bland and Southcote is the beneficial owner of 2,355,445 shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, representing approximately 32.2% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock. As of the date of this Amendment, Zions is the beneficial owner of 2,363,636 shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, representing approximately 32.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.
(1) Percentage interest calculations in this Amendment are based upon Quotesmith having 7,322,468 total outstanding shares of Common Stock upon the consummation of the sale of the shares to Zions, as reported to the Holders by Quotesmith on August 16, 2004.

Because each of the Holders and the Bland Parties have agreed pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement to vote their shares of capital stock of Quotesmith, and any shares of capital stock of Quotesmith for which they have voting rights, to elect the Zions Director, the Holders, the Bland Parties and Zions may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. Each of the Holders disclaims the existence of a group with the Bland Parties and Zions, and neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by any Holder that such a group exists.

(b) The Holders have the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the vote or disposition of all of the Shares. Each of Thoms and Mrs. Thoms disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock or other securities beneficially owned by Zions or any of the Bland Parties, and the filing of this Statement and the information contained herein shall not be construed as an admission that either Thoms or Mrs. Thoms is, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock or other securities.

Each of the Bland Parties and Zions has the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the vote or disposition of all of their respective shares of Common Stock listed in Item 5(a). In addition, because each of the Holders and the Bland Parties have agreed pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement to vote their shares of capital stock of Quotesmith, and any shares of capital stock of Quotesmith for which they have voting rights, to elect the Zions Director, the Holders may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the voting of the 4,719,081 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Bland Parties and Zions in the aggregate.

Each of the Bland Parties’ business address is 8205 South Cass Avenue, Suite 102, Darien, Illinois 60561. Bland is the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quotesmith. Mrs. Bland is a homemaker. Southcote is a holding company for all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Bland and Mrs. Bland. Each of Bland and Mrs. Bland are U.S. Citizens. Southcote is a Delaware limited partnership.

Zions business address is One South Main Street, Suite 1138, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111.

During the past five years, to the best knowledge of each Holder, no directors nor executive officers of Zions have, nor has any of the Bland Parties (1) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (2) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Each of those individuals is a citizen of the United States.

(c) Within 60 days of the date of this Amendment, the persons named in response to Item 5(a) sold shares of Common Stock in open market transactions on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market as set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto.

Except as described above and in any statement, no Holder has, nor to the knowledge of the Holders, neither Zions nor any of the Bland Parties has, effected any transactions in the securities of Quotesmith during the past 60 days.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
