Hi Ali,

this is the link for the RSS field for Visual C++ General

It is from the text "Subscribe to RSS" at this page:

Excuse my ignorance here.

I downloaded RSS Bandit, and tried to subscribe to a new feed. So I
right clicked on the feed subscriptions and selected new.. The wizard
came up and I put in http://forums.microsoft.com for the URL and it tells
me "Sorry, no feed could be located."

How do you subscribe to a feed?

Many of us here have resisted spending much time in web-based
http://forums.microsoft.com, prefering the simple elegance of NNTP-based
newsreaders providing threaded post support. This is too bad, because
the other forums have some pretty famous people hanging out there, and
staying tuned to what they are saying is valuable.

So I was very happy to have started RSS Bandit and SharpReader, two RSS
feed readers, instead of a browser to read these forums. They provide a
UI similar to Outlook Express and other NNTP newsreaders and are two of
the few RSS feed readers that support "threaded comments" so each reply
appears as a separate message. It's still not as convenient as Outlook
Express, but it's much more convenient than using a web browser. Check
them out!
