I am using IE 8 and just started getting this error on all my feeds. I have
not changed anything. I have checked the settings and they are set for
automatic download once a day.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. The only thing on the MS site
that deals with is for a share point server. I am a (very frustrated) home
user.

You might be better served posting in an Internet Explorer newsgroup as
opposed to a Windows XP newsgroup.

On the web:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=...rosoft.

In your newsreader:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

When posting this elsewhere, you may want to include the following
information:
- Operating System (including edition)
- Exact version of your operating system (will include the Service Pack
level of the operating system)
- 32-bit or 64-bit operating system
- Exact version number of Internet Explorer

For example - you might have:

Windows XP Professional - Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090804-1435 :
Service Pack 3) with Internet Explorer version 8.0.6001.18702... 32-bit.

You can obtain and supply the edition and version information:

Start button --> RUN
(no "RUN"? Press the "Windows Key" + R on your keyboard)
--> type in:
winver
--> Click OK.

The picture at the top of the window that opens will give you the general
(Operating System name and edition) while the line starting with the word
"version" will give you the rest of the story. Post _both_ in response
to this message verbatim. No paraphrasing - instead - ensure
character-for-character copying.

What version of Internet Explorer are you currently using? Easy to find
out. Open Internet Explorer and while that is in-focus, press and hold
the "ALT" key on your keyboard. With the "ALT" key still pressed, press
(just once, no holding) the "H" key. Now, with the "ALT" key still
pressed, press (just once, no holding) the "A" key. That will bring up
the "About Internet Explorer" window. It will give you the exact version
you are using - repeat what you see there in response to this message.
