Wildgrape NewsDesk 1.1 (Windows NT, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows 2000)

Another bloated pig of a program.  

I am sitting here looking at the insane memory footprint of this program. NewsDeskUI.exe 30,856K NewsDesk.exe 10,928K I cant think of a single reason on the face of the earth why a simple RSS client should consume in excess of 40 megs of RAM. This is yet another simple rehash of what apparently is some Microsoft RSS toolkit. Uninspired. Bloated. [alert admin]

BlogExpress 1.00.03a (Windows NT, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows 2000)

Why are these so bloated?  

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. [alert admin]
