A new version of RSS Bandit has just been released!
Don't let the download page on their site fool you, they haven't updated it yet. The UI has a new look with new icons, the disappearing toolbar issue has been resolved, quick icons in articles for “read” and “follow-up”, and I'm sure many other additions. Honestly, I'm happy with just the new icons and fixing my toolbars. That horrible smiley face icon on my desktop annoyed me slightly. :-)
Grab v 1.3.0.38 here or wait until the main site has been updated with a link. If you already have RSS Bandit installed you probably already know this version exists. If you haven't tried it you should. A nice, clean, simple RSS reader written in C#.
New features and general information can be found on Dare Obasanjo's blog.
