March 23, 2008 · version 1.14Not able to load (for the moment)
wil.reyesWas great when it worked. Since unpdating Vista with SP1 it's not able to complete loading. I get Windows error message "Yahoo! Widgets has stopped working..." however, all other widgets are working. Only Newstand is not able to load. Hope this can be fixed soon.

Crashing on Startup
KatherineI guess you already know of this problem, but I haven't been able to get this widget to work because it always crashes at startup. If the issue is the Yahoo Forums RSS Feed, then could you take it out as a default feed? If the feed has known issues, it seems that it would make sense not to automatically bundle it with the widget. Looking forward to using this in the future...

March 03, 2008 · version 1.14Download manually
WidgetWorlderic37200: That's a bug in the Yahoo Gallery and Yahoo Widget Engine. I would suggest you click on "Widget history" and manually download the update. Just close the existing NewsStand widget, overwrite it with the new one, and then start it up again.

Bug in the engine
WidgetWorlddomdom: The first default feed is the Yahoo Widget Forum feed and it occasionally allows bad characters in the feed. Normally, that shouldn't be that big of an issue..usually, it just means the feed is invalid and cannot be read. Unfortunately, the current Yahoo engine has a significant bug which causes the entire widget to crash when it gets bad characters in an XML feed. The easiest solution for now is to simply delete the Yahoo Forum feed when it is working (like it is at this moment).
