That is the standard support reply similar to the classic 'take 2
aspirin and (do not) call in the A.M.' If the jerk had any smarts you
would be told how to download the update file and inspect it since it
is human readable.

They are not paid to fix problems only to blow them away as fast as
possible. Called Level 1 in the business.

All my UK stock and fund prices have been returned as 1/100 of their correct
value since 10/05/06 by the "Update online" function of Money 2004. When I
used one of my 2 free calls to Microsoft, the help desk technician assured me
there is no reported problem with the MSN Money server, and therefore that
the problem is with my data file or Money installation. His only suggestions
were to repair the file and re-install the software, neither of which, as
expected, worked.

Right. Your situation and that of "Submarine LDO" are quite
different.

For yours I would ask if you have some kind of protection software
that limits some access to certain hours.

Also, if you are using Money 2004, I have a different idea.

I don't think certain symbols are causing this problem. In fact, when the
problem started for me I also had HD (Home Depot) and A (AT&T) with many
other listed (Dow, NASDAQ) stocks.

What are some symbols.

I am very surprised that somebody would have this kind of symptom
with HD and T. However that would be normal if your symbols are five
characters ending in X or F or Y.

Microsoft are clearly having all sorts of updating problems at present - go
to UK Edition community group and you'll see a long correspondence about the
breakdown of its funds updating service. Your problem may be part of the same
thing.

I've had the same problem since last October except that it is 100%
overnight only. Nothing changes during the day.

Some of my stocks in my portfolio do not update prices throughout the day.
Some do, but most do not, including HD, T, ... ones that I know have the
correct symbol inputted.

For instance, at 7PM, when I look at my portfolio, most of the stocks list
the days gain as unch, and still list yesterday's closing price (which didn't
update until sometime late the night before). For those stocks, I never have
a day's gain listed, because when the price finally updates, it's a new day!!

Strange but true...any suggestions?
