What's your favorite money software?

I've been using Microsoft Money forever and a day (probably since 2001 or so). It downloads from the bank directly into my checkbook register, and I never have to keep track of receipts, which I love. I don't really use the other parts of money (my budget is written out on paper, I put due dates on a calendar, etc). So, it works for us, but it's not perfect. That said, I would have stuck with it forever.

But....

They've discontinued the web based part of the product. No more downloads into my register!!! So, I'm searching for a new checkbook/budget product. Do you have one you love? Any ideas?? Thank yoU!

Edited to add: Mvelopes looks interesting, but I wish I could find something cheaper. Or, if you use that, is it really worth it?

at this point I just use Mint.com. Love it! I use our banks online system for paying bills but for downloading and budgeting -Mint is great!
