I looked at one of my QFX import files and it looks almost exactly the 
same format.  Do you happen to have another account with another bank or 
possibly a Credit Card account that you can get a QFX or OFX from?  If 
are able to get one from some place else and it works, it's possible 
that there is some issue in the structure they are using.

I personally use the quicken QFX format with GC and haven't had a issue 
under 2.2.9.  That maybe worth a try.
