any rss reader can read simple press feeds...  if you have private forums, be sure to include the feedkey in the url...

I am not familiar with that feed validator - we use the w3c one  http://validator.w3.org/feed/ for testing...  

and our feeds validate...  that would indicate to me that the wp theme or another plugin is adding stuff to the feed... 

when you look at the raw source of your feed, it doesnt validate because something has added three blank lines a the beginning of it...

another plugin or theme that doesnt realize its a feed... or doing something wrong with content...

just to verify that, try turning off all other plugins and see if it works...  if not, then switch to the wp default theme and see...

that would at least answer few questions...

okay, np... 

I have some experimental code I have written to keep others from dorking with our feeds...  in all fairness, if they ask wp if the page is a feed, wp will say no...  my experimental code changes that...  but it would require that they at least check if its a feed...

but would like to know that its a plugin or theme causing it on your site first before going my code route...
