Just wondering ... since I would think it MUST work on even a secure PC.
Did you try:
change date to 2003
turn off network.
Reboot.
Start ( install) Money
Set up account ???
===========================
Once account info on PC ....
For my Bank/brokerage accounts I can also go to their website and download
the account/history files and save as OFX file on my Pc . I then OPEN
Money and import.
Would that STILL require connection to msft home server to 'validate' ?
BTW I think for all versions, that " how long is it good for ?" info is in
Money - Help - About
