Do you know what the encoding of the file is? If not, could you attach (part of) the CSV file?

It appears the encoding is UTF-16. I will try to add support for UTF-16 as soon as I can.

In the meantime, I've converted your file to UTF-8 and attached it to this post. Thought it might be helpful if this is all you need to import.
