Wow, I am impressed: people are still using it. I couldn't be that bad then :)

Cool. It shows that the crash happens inside libofx while processing the data 
(contained in a file). To catch the communication going on (so that one can 
see the data that is causing the trouble) you need to create a file before you 
start KMyMoney. Do this with the following command:

  touch ~/ofxlog.txt

  Be warned: this file contains your banking credentials!!!

Now the importer traces what's going on data wise (hopefully already in 1.0.4. 
I just have the SVN HEAD sources at hand). For some reason, the data received 
causes libofx_proc_file() to throw an _out_of_range exception in a string copy 
operation. According to the docs the libofx function starting the copy 
operation does the following:

/**
   This function will strip all the OFX proprietary tags and SGML comments 
from the SGML string passed to it
*/

string::copy is called twice in that function (sanitize_proprietary_tags) so I 
don't know which one could cause the trouble.

BTW: which version of libofx are you using?

Hope that is a starter to solve the problem.
