   When you click on "Subscribe to RSS feed" button in the categories section of my blog, the following error is returned.

   XML Parsing Error: xml declaration not at start of external entity
   Location: http://rockinknit.com/rblog/feed/
   Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   ^

   Any ideas? I've never had this problem, I've had a blog with feeds before, not this one, and never had to do anything, so I'm wonder if there's something I have to setup or fix?

   Any help is appreciated.

   My site is http://www.rockinknit.com

   Error: XML Parse Error
   (WP2.7)
   FireFox 3.06

   Plugin installed but the "usage" instructions say:
   1. Into the background->options>fix rss feed

   Where is this? I can't find where to start
