Recently purchased a new PC with Vista. Installed Q2006 Dlx and
copied/imported all of my Q. files from my old XP box. All is working
fine for, but now I notice a couple of things.

One, when I click on Help -> Quicken help, I get that the program
cannot display the web page, with messages telling me to check the
usual internet connection issues. I have no other internet connection
problems, including downloading txns from my financial institutions.

Second, the reason I was accessing help was to find out how to group
some scheduled transactions. When I imported the files from my old PC
(running Q2004) there were some grouped scheduled transactions. After
a while I completely re-worked my scheduled transactions and deleted
the transaction groups. Now I'd like to regroup a few and cannot find
where/how to do it in Q2006. (For instance, for every scheduled
paycheck, I'd also like to schedule some contributions to savings
goals. Right now they are all individually scheduled.

Apparently, this behavior is caused by a recent Microsoft Security
Update, KB942615. Only you can decide if you want to uninstall it.
After searching some, I did, and it solved the problem.

Click the "Options" button at the bottom of the dialog box when
creating a New scheduled transaction; the "Group" button is near
the botton of the resulting dialog.
