What's a good standalone (not web- or browser-based) rss feed reader for WinXP?

I use feedreader, and it's pretty okay.

I like desktopsidebar - a strip at the side of the screen with RSS feeds, a picture gallery, clock, weather, email checker, computer performance monitor, messenger contacts, etc etc... couldn't do without it now I've used it.

FeedDemon. Standalone 3 pane app, although it does have an MSIE control embedded in it. That's a good thing.

I wrote up some thoughts on choosing an aggregator.
