I've been getting the following message on certain RSS feeds:

"Failed: Internet Connection is Offline"

When I check the report the error message is "error: Offset out of range: 13:00:00"

I checked my IE settings and it is set to work online. I've fiddled with everything I can think of to make it work, but with no luck.

The failure message is only on certain RSS feeds:

http://tvnz.co.nz/content/415977/rss_20_skin.xml fails, but feeds from other sites work (even when updating at the same time - which makes me think that the "internet connection is offline" message is a red herring, and there's a problem rendering the RSS for the feeds in question.

Is there a workaround anyone can think off? Or should I just revert to Sunrise Desktop (which these feeds did work in.)

Yeah, the error message is misleading. I recommend reverting to Sunrise Desktop.

Have done - and fortunately they both sit nicely side by side so I can keep XP features. :)
