Note Microsoft .NET Passport is now Windows Live ID. However, older versions of Microsoft Money may still refer to Windows Live ID as Passport, .NET Passport, or the Passport Network. On This PageSUMMARYOlder versions of Money used forms of online authentication of your Windows Live ID (.NET Passport) e-mail address that are either no longer supported (Money 2002, Money 2003, and Money 2004) or that may soon not be supported (Money 2005, Money 2006, Money 2007, and Money Plus).
Therefore, we strongly recommend that you either replace your Windows Live ID sign-in credentials with a Standard Money Password or upgrade to the most current version of Microsoft Money.
