Ok, I found a few knowledgebase articles that seemed to apply to me. The
first was related to Internet Explorer security, and the steps to correct
didn't help. Then I found another article (#331123) titled: Money: Error
Message: Money Is Unable to Verify Your Online Sign In. This article
mentioned msxml3.dll COM registration. Basically, all I needed to do was
Start | Run | "regsvr32 msxml3.dll"

After that, Money logged into Passport no problem.

I believe I found a knowledgebase article once which suggested the IE
settings were the culprit, but as you I found that not to be the case.

I'm not so sure having the online "features" disabled is such a bad thing.


My biggest gripe right now about it is that with 2003 they made an
ever-so-slight change to the login screen which makes you have to click on
the offline option (the keyboard shortcut is removed) which just makes this
issue more of a PITA than it was in the previous version. I can't help feel
that it was an intentional effort by MS to entice you to use the Passport
login, although one would THINK they shouldn't care. Hmmm.

You wouldn't happen to remember the Q number for that knowledgebase article
would you? It might help...

Thanks for the input. I haven't tried taking down my LinkSys yet to see if
that helps, but I did go through all sorts of different configs, enabling
UPnP, disabling again, rebooting, etc... and nothing worked. Tried
readjusting my IE Security settings to make them more relaxed (thinking that
money used IE APIs maybe...). Still have the problem. If I don't use Online
authentication for passport, then I am able to login and use my Money file,
but then all online features are disabled. Yuck!

Methinks Money is not using a "normal" Passport login. Money simply refuses
to log in via Passport through my firewall (Microsoft ISA), but is fine
outside the firewall, even through ZoneAlarm. I have used Passport to log
into all kinds of other sites from behind ISA.

Not an answer, I know, just more info.

Anybody have any experience with passport not authenticating in Money 2004?
I get the following error:

The sign-in attempt for {my passport id} was unsuccessful. Please try your
sign-in name and password again.


My MSN Messenger 6.1 and my Pocket PC Messenger both login in fine from the
same machine the Money is installed on. Any ideas would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!
