Like many on here I use firefox. I also have vista and love the integrated RSS feed feature. The problem is that when I sign up for a RSS on firefox I have no way of getting to the Windows Live RSS. Does anyone know of an option, update or add-on that fixes this problem?
Thanx,
Indybird

You could try a different Browser--Opera looks almost the same as Firefox, it imports your old Bookmarks, etc...so there's no confusion when you switch...plus, they have a widget that allows you to feed RSS just by typing in the website's URL...I don't know if that would solve it or not....

Opera is preddy good. You can download all the plugins while the browser is running. Only thing I dont like about firefox is you try to youtube and the damnned thing wont update the flash.

If you're on Vista, just boot up IE7, and add the RSS feed through that. It's automatically added. If this is what you're looking for...

The problem is that the 'hooks', or the pieces of software that watch for RSS feeds, watch only IE7: they live in the Windows Live service. A Firefox plugin would be necessary in order to trigger the hooks somehow. Chances are, someone's already working on one. :)
