Why can't I subscribe to RSS feeds with RC2?
I can't do a damn thing with RSS feeds since installing RC2 of 4.0. The live bookmarks button to "Subscribe to this webpage..." does nothing but refresh the page. Clicking on a direct link to the feed does nothing, and RSS reader addons will not find the feeds at all even if I manually save them to a bookmark folder. I did have NewsFox installed prior which is now outdated which I thought might have screwed things up, but since removing it, I still have the same issue.

Try reinstalling your Firefox

You can find the RSS feed button in the toolbar palette if you open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window. You can drag the RSS feed button on the Navigation Toolbar.
If you have the menu bar hidden then use "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
The problem isn't finding it. The problem is it doesn't do anything. I go to a site with a RSS feed, it lights up as though its detecting it, and then when you press it nothing happens. Doesn't bookmark anything, I have no Live Bookmarks folder anywhere, I don't know what the hell happened. I already have the button there.

I'm thinking I might have to but I'm really trying to avoid that as I don't want to hunt down all my addons and reconfigure everything again, especially if it doesn't work.
edit: Was a pain in the ass, but reinstalling it worked. Only thing I can think of is if the outdated addon screwed with the RSS system somehow.
