UK Money site now offline

This probably happened a while back ;-) but the UK Money site1 is no longer functioning. This site used to contain information about the UK product, but hasn't really been updated since Money 2005 was released back in 2004.

The MSN Money site also no longer lists the product directly from its homepage, although by digging around, you can still find the old pages referenced (the welcome page can be found here).
It is possible that Microsoft are decommissioning these pages - which could mean that 2005 is the last version for the UK (given the lack of anything in recent years, then this is a possibility - although I don't know!).

Assuming this is the case, I have made a safe copy of the Financial Institutions page, which may be handy at some stage for my main website.

So, what do you do if you want to upgrade to a US version (it's not straightforward)? You'll need to try out the US version (trial page) and worry about file conversion (QIF Export/Import) and then get hold of the real US version through digital download.
