What is Abilon?
Abilon displays headlines from RSS (Rich Site Summary - Really Simple

kb), fast, and free. Adding new channels is as simple as right-clicking
and entering the address of the feed.

it.

Thanks Henk! Nice Find. I like the GUI of this better than FeedReader.
I still need to play around with it though. It would be great if I
could eventually get it to work with my blogging software - WordPress -
it's not on this programs list though.

Does it use IE?

It does if you use the "Internal" browser, but it can be set to use
whatever the default browser is for your system.
