You possibly have a whole lot of "unaccepted" transactions.

After the Updating your accounts completes, go into each of your accounts
and for any that say there are Transactions to Read, accept them all.

That should speed up your starting, since it sounds as if the
"home" page is probably associated with the slowness.

Then Tools-> Settings-> HomePageDisplayOptions and Remove the
BillsAndDeposits and SpendingTracker modules. If you still have a
problem when you go to the "home" page, remove all modules. If the
problem goes away, you can add things back until the crash does not
happen. Add back in the other things you want on the home page.
Let us know which was the problem module.

Money 2008 seems to stick at "Updating your accounts", msmoney.exe
then takes an excessively large amount of CPU. I've left this run
overnight and it eventually clears but it's basically making Money un-
usable.

I'm running it on Vista 64bit - current updates etc. I've been a
Money user forever and this is just horrible.
