Another one question... :D
I'm using NewsBreak to receive the RSS feeder... but I have observed that it is quite invasive... It puts many process in the notify queue and in the startup... so... althoughts I think NewsBreak is a good software... I'm trying a program more light for the system... Do you suggest me anything?
Thanks in advamce!

Hey Stefano,
NewsBreak registers for certain notifications in order to update the feeds and to take advantage of network connectivity when it is available. On WM5 only two notifications are registered, and on WM 2003 there are no more than four registrations. If you are seeing more than four entries for NewsBreak in the notifications queue you may be a victim of a WM 2003 bug that duplicates notification entries whenever the device is reset. There should be just one NewsBreak process running the vast majority of the time. A second process will run momentarily when one of the registered event occurs, in order to inform NewsBreak that it is time to do an update. NewsBreak does not install anything in the startup folder at all.
You can eliminate all of these notifications by turning off automatic updates, but I think you'll find that any application that updates automatically requires notifications like this, and you should not see any performance issues with having these notifications registered. If you're having a specific problem or if there is something specific about the way
NewsBreak is installed that is bothering you, please send us the details and we'll try to shed more light on the situation.
