Hi. My RSS feeds update automatically for an hour or so (they're set to
update every 15 minutes), and then they stop updating. I then go to
Scheduled Tasks, delete the feeds updating task, and then reset it. It'll
work again for a short period of time and then just stop updating. So I
repeat the process. What's going on, and how do I fix this behavior? Thanks.

"WLMail uses IE7's RSS feed. Do you see the same behavior when accessing
the feeds in IE7 (CTRL+J)?"
Yes

"IE7 Tools | Internet Options | Content | Feeds | Settings: Is "Every 1
hour" selected here as the default?"
Yes

"Open IE7 Favorites Center to the Feeds view (CTRL+J). Individual settings
for 46 feeds is a lot to check but are any of them set to a Custom schedule
(IOW, not the Default)?"
No, I checked the Properties of every Feed, all are set to Default (1 Hr).

"The above notwithstanding, see if this fix is for you:

I'll try this tomorrow and let you know what happens.

Thanks.
Larry
