   Review - FeedDemon

   2.6.0.21 (Jan 18, 2008)

   Best desktop reader I've used, and I was a paying customer...
   
   @stisev: Why does Nick Bradbury "HAVE TO" make FD portable? Yes, portable software can be useful, but that's hardly a deal-breaker. As for saving application data in the \AppData folder, um, isn't that where it's supposed to save it? Vista doesn't let apps write data to the installation folder by default, and like it or not, some people are going to be installing this on Vista.
   
   I do agree with you about not being given an option on whether or not to install FeedStation, little things can cause lots of annoyance...

   Review - WindowBlinds

   5.0 (Nov 29, 2005)

   It just keeps getting better...
   
   The beta testing shook out the bugs, and this release runs very smooth, doesn't slow down my 2-year-old PC in the slightest, and the skins look stunning.
   
   Another reason for me to add a 4th year to my OD subscription.

3. Comment - MS: Forget OPML, Use Windows RSS

   @phill666: Looks like they're already thinking ahead on that issue, check the channel9 video at http://download.microsof...7beta2_preview_2006.wmv and listen to what they say about a system they call NVS (normalise, validate, sanitise) which standardises all incoming feeds into RSS 2.0, validates the markup, and then strips out any markup that doesn't corellate to the content (scripts, activex, etc).
   
   It seems like a sensible approach to the security issue, though it is early days yet...
