I'm talking about a XML news reader that runs off of DXScript. It shows the WC News w/o going to the site. It's under the DX Misc objects, I think.

Ahh. gotcha. Actually I think that dx object just downloads the XML file and performs an XSL translation on it to convert it to HTML and display it as a web page on the dx desktop using the IE web control.
If you open the the object with winzip you tell it to use a different XSL file, then take/download the one referenced and muck with it to change the colors and so forth. I did this a while back so that it matched my desktop color scheme, but have long since lost the object.

I see why you ditched it...after dealing with it for awhile it was more of a pain in the ass than anything else.
