Good online money manager?

Hi,

It seems that the first direct plus manager doesn't work with firefox anymore, and also likes to crash in IE7 so I can't use that anymore.

Because i have many accounts, a money manger is really useful for me. I know egg have one, but do any other banks/BS have an online service like this?

I liked the fd plus one in particular as it grouped your accounts together (current, savings, debts etc) and gave a grand total as well as subtotals for each group. It seems the egg money manager just lists them all without any grouping.

    To use ActiveX in Firefox, get IE Tab - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/

    The Egg one is based on the product created by eWise. Their version (AccountUnity) can be found at https://www.ewise.com.au/accunity/aa/home.asp?pid=accunity

    AccountUnity offers a few advantages over Egg:
    1) you can use it while Egg's site is down.
    2) If you use more than one PC regularly (say work and home) you can store the profile on a USB pen so you use the account on any PC, instead of having to enter the passwords separately on each.
    3) They're likely to add new accounts (ICICI was the last I was aware of) quicker than Egg.

    I've not seen FD's so cannot comment. There's no grouping or summation in AccountUnity, but you can reorder the accounts.
