Stock symbols and what sources you have configured for those would be 
all I need for testing F::Q outside of GnuCash. I suspect you may be 
using a source (or sources) that get data through web scraping, and the 
HTML returned from the URL used in the F::Q module has changed.

Please remember to reply-all, not just the list, and not just the direct 
emails.

Thanks.
