Same problem as with the above posters. I can get online just fine with the browse activity, but there's no sign that the news reader activity works. All default feeds are empty. Refreshing seems to do nothing. Says it's polling feeds (once I press refresh). All settings are at default. Using build 653. [[User:Munir|Munir]] 6:21, 26 January 2008 (EST)

It says that News Reader can download bittorent files. Anyone have any idea how to get this feature to work? I've had no success. I can download a torrent from a torrent site by clicking the link, but once it's in the journal, where do you go from there?

Feedburner

I tried a feedburner link to a feed and it does not work. A direct link to an .XML did work, though. Any thoughts?

General Use

My links all work but the updating is sporadic at best. The refresh button does not appear to do anything. If the polling is working, there is nothing to give indication it is actually doing this. The feeds reach the news reader much later than the stories are posted on the host's website. Anybody else experiencing this behavior? Aaronfeibus 13:59, 8 January 2008 (EST)

None of the feeds that came configured with the reader have ever successfully been polled on my laptop. Unkilbeeg 12:01, 10 January 2008 (EST)

I hope this is in the right place. I can't get the RSS/NewsReader to work at all either... none of the feeds that came with it connect or download. 1/15/08
