Yes I purchased it online and used my same Passport account during setup.
It's odd it said it could not connect during setup and I noticed I have no
startup sound in Vista. Otherwise it seems to work. Maybe it's just not Vista
ready.

Register (from Help menu) is not the same as Activate and is generally

Was this an online/download purchase? If not, then there is no "Activation".
I'm assuming the answer is yes because you say you are stuck in Trial mode.

Did you associate Money/any Money data file with the same Passport you used
to buy the online version?

I installed Money '06 and it is stuck in trail mode. As it installed it said
it could not connect and I could register later. This is not the case. In XP
I have a register button in the about dialog but not in Vista. I updated my
bank account with no problems after it asked if I was online. I am using IE 7
in XP and all works fine. How can I make this thing register?
