Since you traced an error message when monitoring with Wireshark, I
tried this command on my system:

  curl "http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?f=snl1d1t1c1p2vbapomwerr1dyj1qa2c4&e=.csv&s=AMZN"

which nicely returns

"AMZN","Amazon.com, Inc.",527.46,"8/11/2015","4:00pm",+3.46,"+0.66%",2683253,524.01,524.90,524.00,523.65,"522.00 - 528.98","284.00 - 580.57",-0.41,N/A,N/A,N/A,N/A,246.70B,N/A,3305790,"USD"

You should probably check if any kind of firewall or proxy is blocking
this request..
