Why do I get an error message error updating RSS feed when I try to update "Mac OS Knowledge Base Documents" RSS in Mail 3.6 in Mac OS X 10.5?
This used to work. I also no longer get any new updates for "Apple Hot News". What changed? How to I fix this?

Hi Ed,
Use the tiny Camera icon to add a pic here, your link shows nothing.
Last "Apple Hot News" was JUL 8th here.
Is your RSS Screensaver also stuck???
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, move these files to the Desktop if they exist. Will require resetting some options.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver.<12digitHex Number>.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver.slideshow.< 12digitHexNumber>.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktopscreensaver.rsspictures .plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.preference.desktopscreeneffect .plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Then reboot once more.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
