The Readme.txt file contains instructions on how to use the files.

To change the default phone number for VISA InterActive, follow these steps:

1. Quit Money.
2. Go to the location where you saved the Viprime.exe file and double-click the Viprime.reg file.
   
   You may receive the following error message:
   Cannot import C:\<folder>: Error opening the file. There may be a disk or file system error.
   where <folder> is the path up to the first space in a folder name. You will have to drag the Viprime.reg file to the desktop and double-click the file from that location.
   
   Additional information: The registry editor cannot correctly parse a file's path if there are spaces as part of the name. Dragging the file to the desktop and double clicking from that location, or in a folder that has no spaces in the path to that folder, allows the file to be registered.
3. When notified the file was successfully registered, click OK.

Money now uses the primary access number to access your financial institution through VISA InterActive Center.

To restore the default settings, double-click the Videflt.reg file.
