SYMPTOMS

When you download a statement from your financial institution's Web site, move to a different screen in Money 2000, and then click Back to return to the Web site, you may receive an error message stating that you are no longer signed in to the Web site.

When you attempt to reconnect to the Web site, you continue to receive the error message.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because Money 2000 does not recognize that you are still connected to your financial institution's Web site when you move to a different screen in the program.

When you return to the Web site, Money 2000 attempts to sign in to the Web site again. However, your financial institution's Web server refuses the connection because you are still signed in to the Web site.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, wait for your financial institution's Web server to reset your connection before you attempt to reconnect to your financial institution's Web site. The idle time before your connection is reset is determined by your financial institution.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

To prevent this issue from occuring, start Microsoft Internet Explorer before you download your statement from your financial institution's Web site. To do this:
  1. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Internet Explorer.
  2. Start Money if it is not already running, or click the Money 2000 button on the Windows task bar.
  3. Connect to your financial institution's Web site, and then download your statement.
When Internet Explorer is running, Money 2000 recognizes that you are still connected to your financial institution's Web site when you move to a different screen in Money 2000. When you click Back to return to your financial institution's Web site, Money does not attempt to sign in to the Web site again.
