Bug Description
When running 'ofxconnect' for the first time (eg: 'ofxconnect -b' to get a list of all known OFX banks), ofxconnect attempts to retrieve an XML file from money.msn.com by POSTing some magic values to /money/
This returns an 'Object Moved' page that doesn't appear to work when pasting directly into a browser.
Searching online, this appears to be a common technique:
http://
https:/
But neither of those work either. I can't find the incantation required to make MSN search return a proper URL.
I would suggest that a default set of files (it retrieves several, all of which fail) be shipped with the package (something is better than nothing?) or perhaps link to the data at http://
