If you had autho-browse empty descriptions turned on, you got an error. I fixed this in the 8.101 version of the code
Some feeds use GUID instead of link - no good reason for that, but there are politics surrounding RSS. In any case, Bf now uses the GUID if the link is missing, and the GUID is an URL
What's nice about the update feature is that I don't have to manage farms of patches or rush a new version out - I can just have the application offer to upgrade itself.
