Their demo says that their downloads are in .csv format, but Quicken etc. 
users must download from *within* their program.  Downloading a file then 
importing it won't work, apparently.  What that means in practice, other users 
may know.

Quicken has had a facility for doing something like that for a while, although 
I never use it.  On the "Download Transactions" tab of my 2005 version, there 
is a button "Set Up Download" (currently grayed out.)  Sometimes business 
accounts can set up a direct link by special arrangement and for a fee, but I 
doubt if that is what they mean.

HTH,
