| Money 2006 & Firewall Alerts Unlike Money 2004, the new retail version insists on trying to connect to Microsoft every time it's started. I don't use any of the Money online features & have turned off all possible related options. Yet my application firewall reports 6-8 connection attempts at every Money start up. |
