What is RSS?
___________________________ Click MeClicking on the orange buttons will often cause the RSS file to be rendered in your browser. This is a mistake on the part of the publisher of the RSS file. They are responding incorrect to the click. If they respond correctly, then it should launch your default RSS reader. By default, there is no RSS reader installed with Windows XP, so your computer will likely not understand how to handle these files regardless. On the other hand, if you install an RSS reader that supports USM, then clicking on the orange buttons will signal your RSS reader to handle this RSS file. It should ask you, if you want to be notified of changes to this Webpage. ___________________________ RSS ReadersFollowing is a list of RSS readers that support USM.
