The issue is that the link is to your site without the www part, and your setup in the admin area uses the www part to link to your site.

This means that browsers thinks the XSLT stylesheet is located on a different server and thus doesn't allow you to connect to the XSLT stylesheet.

If you upgrade to version 8.0 or 8.01 then their is a different way this is done so that you shouldn't get this issue.

It looks like for some reason IE can not pasre the XSLT stylesheet on your site.

Either disable the RSS Feed from the admin area or delete the file RSS_XSLT_style.asp from your site and just use the RAW XML for your RSS Feeds which shouldn't be effected.

I have just had a closer look at your RSS Feed and it looks like a post that the forum admin made was copied and pasted from Word.

Firefox XSLT parser is still able to parse the RSS Feed, but in IE the post that the forum admin posted from Word is coursing IE's XSLT parser to throw a wobbly.

The problem with posting from MS Word is that it also adds in loads of extra gibberish that only MS Word understands, and not only blots the page but courses other issues like this.

There is a 'Post From Word' tool in the WYSIWYG Editor with version 8 that does try and clean up allot of stuff from MS Word, but I would recommend posting from Notepad instead to clean up all the Word rubbish.

Even better, don't use MS Word anymore, use OpenOffice instead from http://www.openoffice.org - www.openoffice.org , it's much cleaner, faster, than MS Office and best of all it's FREE and compatible with MS Office Documents.

Thank you.  I went ahead and reformated that text in question. 

However dont you see this as an ongoing issue in the future since most people use IE and Word?
 
Thank you

Anyone else find it ironic that Microsoft's IE can't open an XML feed with Microsoft Word markup, but FireFox, the open source alternative can....

I do, but didn't realise that this was an issue, as not so many people now post from Word as people realise the issues that it courses.

I will look into developing some sort of parser for MS Word documents, but the only problem is that I don't use MS Word or have it installed on any of my PC's as I prefer the cheaper and better OpenOiffce, so have no way to build and test such a feature.

Also, for the moment, the RTE has a built in 'Pate From Word' tool, which I would encourage you to use.
