Well I finally found my particular problem.

Some years ago my hotmail account broke with Money and I had to create a new
account [at]msnmoney.com. I was still using my hotmail account for logging in
to MSN. Someone on another thread said to blow away all temporary internet
files, including passwords. Well lo and behold it worked. Mind you, when I
logged back in to MSN again with my hotmail account, Money broke again.
Again getting rid of the password files it worked again.

So it would appear that the two different .net accounts were not compatible.
If I only use MSN with Firefox I don't have this problem. All of the
various gyrations of uninstall, reinstall, reboots galore never fixed my
problem until I discovered this particular problem.

If anyone else has a similar situation, they may find this to help rectify
their situation.

You are correct. That is the nature of Betas. There is no guarantee that
they will work with any existing software and may well crash your PC causing
data loss. In general terms you should never use beta software on a
"production" machine unless you recognise and are prepared for the
consequences.

Does this mean I have no other option but to (either) forget Money, or
reinstall IE6?

I am using IE7 B2. I just tried to install Money 2006, but I am being asked
to install IE 6. Any ideas how to solve this minor glick please?

Hi Daniel,

I'm no longer experiencing the problem but I almost hate to tell you how I'd
fixed it simply because of the method that I'd taken:

I'd reformatted the computer, installed all available Windows updates,
installed MS Money 2006, and then installed IE7 Beta 2 Preview and everything
now works.

Unfortunately, I was never able to get MS Money 2006 and IE7 working before
the reformat. I could restore MS Money 2006 online functionality by removing
IE7 but I could not get them working together.

I wish that I had better advice or an idea of exactly why the two wouldn't
work together. :/

Best of luck,

John

Well I uninstalled IE7 and no luck. I also reinstalled Money 2006 and again
the same problem.

I am thinking that there must be a residual in the registry that might be
causing the problem. Luckily I can still log in offline. Everything works
fine after that but it is a bit of a pain.

I have been having exactly the same problem that John mentioned in his
original post. I hadn't related it to IE7, but I am now thinking that this
might be the time that I found the problem.

when I try to log in the program tells me that my passport Id or password is
incorrect. When I click on the work offline everything seems to work fine
including updates and electronic payments.

I will try to uninstall IE7 and see if that works.

There's no guarantee that B2 will fix this. Depends how MS works. Do the
Money people point the finger at the IE7 people and say "change IE7 so it
doesn't break Money" or do the IE7 people do the same in reverse. I suspect
we may have to wait until M2007 to get this fixed.

I don't know but the latter seems most likely to me!

Thanks for the suggestions.

Unfortunately, I'd tried exactly the steps that you'd mentioned (including
the reboot after Money's reinstall before opening the program). After
uninstalling IE7, Money began working again. I'll probably just stick it out
until the full Beta 2 release and then try it again.

Thanks,

John

I can log in fine. Running Money 2006 Premium and IE 7 Beta 2. The only
thing is that the Home page takes longer than normal to load now and
sometimes other pages at random. But still very useable.

You may want to try reinstalling Money 2006. Make sure you reboot before
running Money after reinstalling, even if it doesn't ask you to (known issue
with IE7).

There have been some others with Money problems after installing the

Contact your Beta representatives and report the problem. It should
help us all out later. Thanks.

After installing IE 7 Beta 2 Preview, I am unable to sign into my account
online. Instead, I have to choose "Work Offline".

Has anyone else tried the IE 7 Beta 2 Preview and, if so, did you encounter
the same problem? I've spoken to one other person at work that experienced
the same problem that I have after installing their beta.

....and, before anyone replies - yes, I know it's beta and, yes, I am going
to uninstall IE 7 but wanted to know if anyone had some ideas/suggestions/etc.

I'll send feedback to Microsoft letting them know of my problem so that it
will be addressed at some future point.

Thanks!
