Not able to update stock prices online

[Brad McNeely]

I've just installed GnuCash 1.8 in hopes of converting from Quicken.  While experimenting with the online stock price update, I noticed that when I created an entry in the Price Editor, it always said that the source was user:price-editor instead of Finance::Quote. I know that the perl module is installed correctly because when I run update-finance-quote it returns saying that it is update to date.  Here are the steps as I performed them in GnuCash:
1. Create a stock account for the item I want to track and check the box for online quotes and selected Motley Fool and Usa/New_York as the source and region.
2. Created an entry in the Commodity Editor.
3. Created an entry in the Price Editor but it alwasys says the source is user:price-editor.

Can someone provide me the correct sequence to set up items to use the on-line price module or tell me if I'm missing a step?

Regards,
Brad
