Budgeting and Financial Software

Does anybody have any advice on using budgeting/financial tracking software? I've tried Microsoft Money in the past but I'm not crazy fond of it. I did some research on-line and found www.mvelopes.com. This is an on-line subscription service which is essentially an electronic version of putting cash in envelopes labeled 'Groceries,' etc. It seems to be pretty solid but I've never used anything like this and was wondering if anyone has any experience with this program or one similar.

I specifically want to ask you married folks, seeing as how I am - and it makes keeping track of things that much harder.

Thanks.

    huh. That mvelopes system seems pretty interesting. Too bad I'm not willing to pay that much per year. even the quarterly plan seems a bit much.

    I'm going to throw out a recommendation for Buddi. It's not the fullest featured one, but it's pretty simple to use, plus it runs on Windows, Linux, and OSX. (Plus they have a pure .jar java version too. )

    Check out mint.com I have been using it for a while and its very simple to use and works pretty well. Plus it's free.
