In trying to get direct access to a new bank, MS Money asked me for my
hotmail account information. Afterwards, whenever I start MS Money, it
has to sign into my Hotmail account. If never did give me access to
my new bank.

Now, it won't even let me access my old banks. On all three
accounts (an AmEx card, a bank and a Visa card), when I press Update I
am told that my last call encountered an error. "Your account
information is being updated, which may take a few minutes. If this
messages appears for more than fine minutes, Try again."

Since all the banks are reporting the same error, it's a MS Money
bug. Since in 5 years I never saw this message until 2 weeks after
that Hotmail crap, I suspect it's related to the hotmail account
setup.

How do I remove that hotmail signin, and go back to the old way where
MS Money accessed my bank's information without a hotmail signin?

Thanks

Seems like an unfounded leap.

Unfounded or not, the fact remains that I cannot download transactions
from my bank this week, I cannot pay bills today, and I cannot disable
the Hotmail account access.

When I go to
Tools-> Settings->"Access your Money data on the Web"
and try to choose to "Remove my financial data from the MSN Money
servers", I'm told "To make this change, you must sign into Money
while you are online"

I'm obviously online, you this post would not be posted.

I can't get into the Hotmail MSN money site, and I cannot remove the
hotmail option until I can get into the Hotmail MSN money site. I
cannot pay my bills.

Any suggestions on how to disable that MSN Hotmail stuff so I can pay
my bills online the way I used to pay them?

You won't be able to until the MSN Money web-site update is completed so
that you can sign into Money 'online'

MSN Money site update (was: disable that hotmal crap) by Chris

Since MS can deliver pop-up upgrade warnings to Money and because I assume
upgrading the MSN Money site involves some advance planning, delivering a
warning about planned maintenance probably would have been better received
than simply cutting people off. Users who desired could make sure they did
an update shortly before the update start, and would not be baffled by not
being able to connect.
