This link (for Top Stories) and other links for other departments (Sports, Internet, etc.) used to work just fine and gave me a very nice graphical view of Reuters news just as it is today on AvantGo including pictures. About 2 weeks ago it broke just giving the content, no nice graphics wrapper or pictures for the news items and now it flat out fails (not authorized). I have the raw links for mobile Reuters content but it's just text, so no nice graphics wrapper and no story pictures and the Internet department is entirely missing. I get these from Yahoo along with AP news.

Yup, the Reuters server (128.121.234.97) does allow access now only for the Avantgo server. So in addition to your link, all the following Reuters links fail to work with iSilo:

- Reuters Deutschland http://128.121.234.97/channels/reuters_de/index.pl
- Reuters England http://128.121.234.97/channels/reuters_gb/index.pl
- Reuters France http://128.121.234.97/channels/reuters_french/index.pl
- Reuters USA http://128.121.234.97/channels/reuters_us/index.pl
- Reuters World http://128.121.234.97/channels/reuters_wef2/index.pl

I've begun the communication process with them as well so we'll see how it goes. Their size concerns me. It could take months to find the right person and they may not have the power to get a change through.
