You should specify the Y2K format adding a header in your file just like
this,
<DTYYMMDD>,<OPEN>,<HIGH>,<LOW>,<CLOSE>
19990309, 161.72,161.725, 161.7124, 161.721
19990310, 161.73,161.745, 161.7014, 161.725
You need the downloader version 6.52

Look in your windows settings and make sure that the year has 4 digits
in stead of 2.
that might be the problem.
(doubleclick my computer and then control panel and then regional options
