Seeing so many scripts got lost because autohotkey.net had some kind of problem, I decided to make my own RSS Reader.

It's fairly simple and looks like a Windows gadget. I don't pay that much attention to the community (sorry about that but hey, at least it's the truth) and therefor won't pay much attention to this thread as well.

You may have to alter the RegEx part of the script (lines 42, 44 and 45) to suit your needs. I use them with both Hexus and AnandTech RSS feed, so that RegEx suits me.

How to use it:
Left click on a title will open it.
Ctrl+Left click on a title will copy the link to the Clipboard.
Right click will reload the script.
Ctrl+Right click will close the script.

Notes:
You may also need the attached image. If you don't want it, the border color will be used as the background.
Also, I know I could have done the GUI reconstruction with GuiControl, but it would make the code more complex than what I needed.
