<font color="blue"><font face="verdana"><b>OK the WA feed seems to be working ok now, no idea what has changed?<p>One thing I noticed it has listed 'Little Miss Shining Golden' by TEAM LANDCRUISER, that is actually a Travel Bug owned by Varuna and not a cache ... the details of the cache show that it is actually 'Dingo's Knob' cache GCJGQX<p>There maybe more errors but that one stood out as we own it ... I'll keep looking around.

<font color="blue"><font face="verdana"><b>Ok here's another one Iowa Bound 2 by Varuna. Iowa Bound 2 is actually a TB as well, the cache it's pointing to is 'Kings Park Travel Bug Hotel by Varuna' GCJJ88<p>It seems if a cache has a Travel Bug in it the cache name is replaced with that of the travel bug.
richary, we are using feedreader which is a PC application. mind socket is using livejournal which is web-based. there are others listed in the links above.
tlc, thanks for letting us know
redeclaration error: that was us tweaking the code
cache naming error: we've fixed the bug and tested it on a group of caches. other caches with travel bugs were affected. the changes to these should ripple through over the next day or so

I have downloaded a rss reader but I need to get .NET Framework before it will work, can anyone point me in the right direction, or is there a reader out there that does not need the .NET Framework.
Thanks
Hi you can get Net Framework for free from the Windows update page, hope this helps
regards Tony
You can get .Net here. It's not small - about 24mb.

I found FreeReader this morning and it seems to be working fine. Doesn't require .NET either. Now someone needs to post a new cache so I can see if it updates correctly.
Found FreeReader at:
www.freereader.com
Like the name says, it's free!
