I also have this problem as well as the auto download or background download
not working. It is a pain. Very disappointed in M05. Very disappointed in
response from Money Support. At least I now know that I am not alone.

the programme just hangs around after trying to close it

Yes, that's correct Cal, I can exit one day, try and run the next and get the
message.

Will try changing that setting for automatic banking and see if that makes a
difference.

Do you want to use background banking automatic updates? If not, I
would remove automatic account updates via
Banking-> AccountTools-> ManageOnlineServices by clicking next to each
account that you have automatic updates set for.

http://help.msn.com/!data/en_us/data/money05_content.its51/$content$/Money_Online_SetUpAutomaticAccountUpdates.htm
describes how to initiate automatic updates.

Have had two issues.

When I exit Money, apparently it does not shut down the msmoney.exe process
because when I go to restart the program, I get a small dialog box saying the
program is already running. If I use task manager to kill the process, I can
then start it.
I do have Money set to back up on exit, and that seems to run fine, if that
matters.

The second, more troublesome was trying to use Money to sync with MSN Money
on line. I ended up with very strange duplications of entries from 2003 on
(hav history going back to 1996). I deleted everything on MSN Money,
restored a back-up, tried again (twice.) Again, same thing. I have since
discontinued trying to use this feature since the 2005 Money for Pocket PC is
finally out, but all three be able to work together?

Extremely frustrated with Microsofts online support, no help or helpful
response. Have received COMPMAIL CASE ID confirmations several times for the
second issue, and then follow-up emails with a managers email address, that
is no good.
