The most common when you revieve errors from a working RSS feed is that the feed from the place you get it from have done something to the code or changed the srr so it wont work.

Can you access the feed if you type in the url manually to the browser outside the forum?

Hi G6... thanks, everything starts to work as suddenly as it has  stopped... weird! It might be internet transition?...

The feeds were down for about 20 min... just for the record!

RSS feeds are pretty unstable IMO. I've seen quite a few sites go completely down because of a bad feed. You may want to test other feeds when you have problems with yours.

I'll do that. These feeds are actually coming from another SMF forum I have.
