Try again later.

I am not saying that the office beta is not the cause in your case,
but sometimes just trying again later will work.

I have been using Money2002 quite uneventfully for several years. When I
tried to sign-in today it wold not accept my password. It keeps prompting
for my sign-in name and password neither of which has been changed since the
beginning. I have tried clicking the "Forgot you password" option but that
does nothing.

The sign-in screen is the "Microsoft Passport Sign-in" screen. I did try
recently to enroll to try-out the new Microsoft Beta Office but found the
process with Password too confusing and gave up in the process. Could I have
in some way unintentionally fouled my Money password at that time? ( I know
the password that I used for that exercise and have tried it also with Money
but that did not work either.)

Thank you for any advice you may have.
