Re: Default update frequency for RSS feeds

["Wai Yip Tung"]

Every time I add a feed I have to manually update the frequency to 1 day.  
Why doesn't it allow me to change thre default?

When I have an older version of Opera it grind to a halt every morning  
when it tries to refresh all 20 feed at the same time. With 9.64 this has  
become considerably better.
