Sorry for the late headline but I just found out today. This really bites for anyone who's been budgeting on any MS Money Plus editions for the past couple of years. I'm currently searching for an alternative that's viable. There are many out there, but I like the ability of MS Money to project future savings/checking account balances.

For what it's worth, the updates are supposed to expire after two years, but my 2007 version still allows for automatic updates and it 'expired' in December 2008.

I switched to Ace Money (paid version) 2 years ago and love it. It put MS Money to shame. VERY Fast program. Free updates if you need them. Try the free, and I bet you'll buy it. I decided to buy it after seeing the spending/available funds forecasting ability. It works perfect.:D
