Outlook stopped refreshing RSS feeds

Suddenly on Monday Outlook stopped fetching RSS feeds.

The status window says 'RSS feeds completed' but its not got any new items
for 3 days.

I've checked many of the feeds and there are new items.

If I view the same feed in IE7 it shows the new items just fine.

I can't find any way in Outlook to force a refresh of individual feeds, or
to view any debug or logging information to see what is going wrong.

These feeds have been with me from the day outlook started supporting RSS so
I'm at a loss to know why they stopped fetching. System restore shows a
windows update 2 days before and the drivers for my webcam the day after it
stopped working. I've restarted both outlook and windows.

Any help with debugging this one

I added a new feed. The initial grab went and fetched all the existing
items. Now waiting to see if it will get any new items as this feed updates.

Still nothing on any of my exisiting feeds :-(

Problem fixed - though I have no idea what happened. I hit Send/Recieve as I
have done many times since Monday and this time all my feeds worked just
fine.... I've done nothing...

Oh well lets hope it stays fixed.

I have had the same problem - sporadically - since I began using Outlook for
RSS feeds. Even though the originator's problem is solved, I hope someone
who understand the issue will provide some insight. It is annoying to have
to move to IE to get the most current feed updates. I would also love to know
whether there is a way to update an individual feed.
