For what it is worth, I was playing today with MS Money Plus Deluxe and thought to share some thoughts.
It is absolutely terrible. Many of its features (retirement planner among others) only work if connected to the internet - which means it uses the Microsoft website instead of the purchased program. Many other components are similar and to work they require not only internet access but - to make things worse - permitting Active-X in Internet Explorer with all the risks involved.
Just thought to share. Quicken is way better and at least privacy is better because your numbers remain on your PC instead of someone else's website.
