Publisher's Description

From Michael Fogleman: Feed Notifier is a Windows application that resides in the system tray and displays pop-up notifications on your desktop when new items are discovered in subscribed RSS/Atom feeds. Features include support for user-selectable themes, tracking any number of feeds, configurable polling intervals for each feed, a do-not-disturb mode to temporarily deactivate the application and proxy server support. Pop-up options include configurable size, position, transparency and duration. The pop-up windows will not steal keyboard or mouse focus from other applications.

"Great program - installer apparently contains malware"

CorwinPOA December 26, 2015 / Version: Feed Notifier 2.6

2015-12-26 11:52:16 | By CorwinPOA

Pros

Truly a great program - best rss feed program I've ever tried. However...see below.

Cons

The executable feed-notifier-2.6.exe, "Feed Notifier Setup " has been detected as malware by 41 anti-virus scanners. The program is a setup application that uses the Inno Setup installer, however the file is not signed with an authenticode signature from a trusted source. Infected by an entry-point obscuring polymorphic file infector which will create a peer-to-peer botnet and receives URLs of additional files to download. - herdprotect.com

Summary

It appears the author hasn't paid any attention to his site for a couple of years, which is sad - going to contact paypal about his donate button, hopefully that gets his attention.
