Same here, it's very frustrating...is Microsoft going to ever fix this?
I'm getting tired of the prompts.

You don't have to register to qualify for the free support?

You don't HAVE to register to use Money. Registration just gives MS a live
email address to spam - sorry send vital marketing communications to! ;-)

I bought my copy at a brick and mortor store and I'm getting that message to
when I try to register. It was still happening this morning 7-23-05.

Still doing the same thing today. Still cannot set up several of my banks
with online updates either. I will give it some time and try it a few times
this weekend before I try to contact MS support.

James,

If you try again today, it will work. As the error message said, the
registration server was not available. Sometimes those dialog boxes actually
tell the truth. In fact, all of Microsoft server's (msn, msnbc, passport,
microsoft, etc.) were disconnected from the internet for most of the
afternoon yesterday.

If you're referring to the specials offers prompt there's an option
in 2005 under Tools -> Settings -> Online Services that you can
uncheck to stop this prompt. You might check for something like
that in your options to disable it.

You have made a major mistake ordering online and now not having a hard
copy of the program. You should buy it at a store. JMHO. Steve

I purchased Money Premium 2006 via a popup in Money Premium 2005. Almost
every time I start the program now it pops up saying I have not registered it
for special offers, but when I try to register it I get a message stating:

Thank you for taking the time to enter your information. Unfortunately, the
server could not be contacted. Microsoft Money will save the information you
entered and you can try to upload your information again later. Please click
OK to continue working in Money.

This has been happening since I purchased it and is starting to get really
annoying. Is anyone else having this problem, and how was it fixed?
