Then you could also use perl to download/fetch the file using LWP::Simple. Then use Encode to decode the content. After that, use Text::CSV_XS (or Text::CSV) to parse the decoded data.

# untested, just an example
use strict;
use warnings;
use autodie;
use LWP::Simple;
use Text::CSV_XS;
my $data = get ("http://some.web.site/location/data.csv");
open my $fh, "<", \$data; # if the site correctly encoded the data
open my $fh, "<:encoding(utf-8)", \$data; # if you have to decode your
+self
my $csv = Text::CSV_XS->new ({ auto_diag => 1, binary => 1 });
while (my $row = $csv->getline ($fh)) {
    # do something with @$row
    }

Again, a link to the original data would be a nice pointer to people here that want to help you out.
