Problem retrieving "europe" stock quotes

[ChrisW]

I have a problem getting stock quotes from Yahoo Europe.
I had been getting stock quotes with no problems for a long time. I got
the last successful quotes from "europe" on 2nd May 2007. NYSE quotes
are still working just fine.
I'm running Gnucash V2.0.5 with version 1.13 of Finance::Quote on both
debian(etch) & fedora(FC5) machines.

...unfortunately re-installing date::manip & HTNL::TableExtract has not
fixed it. Any suggestions appreciated...
