Update history of RSSOwl | RSS / RDF / Atom Newsreader
v1.2.4 (December, 3. 2007)
The RSSOwl Team is happy to announce that RSSOwl 1.2.4 is now available for download. Among minor new features and a couple of bugfixes, this release comes with better support for Windows Vista, the ability to use Mozilla as embedded Browser on Windows and some improvements to the embedded Browser on Mac OS X. See the changelog for a complete list of changes.
For a detailed list of changes that also include a lot of bugfixes, take a look at the changelog at http://www.rssowl.org/CHANGELOG.txt.
If you want to benefit from many new cool features, you should give RSSOwl 2 a try. Its currently in beta stadium but already fully functional. Visit http://boreal.rssowl.org for more details.

v1.2.3 (May, 21. 2007)
The RSSOwl development team is happy to announce the new version 1.2.3 of RSSOwl.
You can now subscribe to feeds with RSSOwl by passing the url of the feed as argument to the
executing launcher (e.g. rssowl.exe on windows). This works very well with the new Firefox 2
where RSSOwl will be visible in the list of newsreaders to select when opening a feed in Firefox.
In case you are already subscribed to the feed, it will display its content.
We continued to improve the security from the embedded browser on windows by disabling JavaScript
when displaying the contents of a news. As soon as the Browser is navigating to a real website,
JavaScript is being enabled again (based on your Internet Explorer settings ). This change is protecting
RSSOwl from malicious JavaScript coming from a Feed so we highly recommend to update to the latest RSSOwl.
Information about news that are marked as read is now persisted at a certain interval while the
application is running. This should finally fix the issue where this information got lost on an
unclean shutdown.
The SWT library was updated to the most recent Version 3.2.1.
