Hello!

I'm running 2.0RC3, and one of my users is trying to pull the RSS feed to display on his site, through MagpieRSS.

This requires you to input just two lines in your code:

require('rss_fetch.inc');
$rss = fetch_rss($url);


But, as you can see here he's getting a 403 error (HTTP Response: HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden ) when it tries to fetch it...

Now, I've looked around for 'RSS' and '403' and there are a few results pertaining to mods, but I can't find a possible solution...

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
