MS have not offered Money upgrades for a very long time. So you need to buy
a full version, but there are often money-back offers to ease the pain!

I think what you may be referring to is the timing out of Internet services.
From http://money.mvps.org/faq/article/186.aspx

Microsoft Money 2006 US
Microsoft® Money 2006 includes up to two (2) years of Internet-Based
Services. You will be able to use the Internet-Based Services in Microsoft
Money 2006 for a period of two (2) years from activation of the product or
until September 1, 2008, whichever is earlier. After expiration, if you
elect not to upgrade to the then-current version of Microsoft Money after
the Internet-Based Services period ends, you will not be able to
automatically update your accounts and investment values in Microsoft Money
2006. You will still be able to view and edit your financial data in
Microsoft Money 2006 and to manually update your accounts and investment
values.

So Money 2006 has another year to go before Internet services are disabled.
US Money 2005 "timed out" on 1st Sept (see above FAQ for other
dates/versions).

When the services are disabled you can no longer download files from your FI
or stock/share prices. You can still do the updates by manually inputting
the numbers.

I do not respond to any emails that I have not specifically asked for.

Is it not possible to upgrade MS Money from previous version like 2006 or do
you just have to re-buy it if you wish to have a working version?

Also, is it true that MS Money 2006 does not work? Not sure what I
understand about that. What does not work in 2006 anymore? Thanks much.
