There's no good reason that a RSS client should require over 20 megs of RAM while running. Yet this one does.

Alternatively, it doesnt really work from behind a firewall. It has a link to the system Internet settings, but it doesnt seem to honor them for proxies.

I've tried 5 RSS clients today, and this has been the worse one.

I love this application, though. 20 MB of memory use is pretty common for software programmed with .Net Framework. Actually, I would say BlogExpress consumes less memory than other .NET software.
