Wordpress and RSS

I have a wordpress site with a studiopress theme that has a large RSS image on the home page(static) for feeds. For some reason the feed works in Firefox but not in IE. Anyone have experience with this problem?

Thanks

 The RSS button links to feed:http://clinical-careers-site.com/feed instead of simply http://clinical-careers-site.com/feed. Firefox ignores "feed" and takes you to http://clinical-careers-site.com/feed but IE does not.
Find a way to change what the RSS button links to. It should be http://clinical-careers-site.com/feed and not feed:http://clinical-careers-site.com/feed.

 Thanks. Would I find that link by editing the theme files?

 Yes, you would find it in the theme files, though I can't tell which one as I am not familiar with the studiopress theme.

 I use Studiopress for some of my Websites, they have an awesome support forum for their theme. That should be the first place you go to as they always are more than helpful:

 Hey Digi,
Just out of interest do you know if you can you customize those themes (RE: like thesis) or is it just templated? .

 The Studiopress team brought out a framework called genesis which allows for some pretty cool customization but it is not available with all themes. The ones that are not compatible with genesis I have found that they need a fair bit of playing around with the template to get it to look and perform the way that you want.

The forum is excellent help for complete newbies that need to customize the theme but it still is very hands on and you will have to edit code and CSS and there is a learning curve but I love the way the themes look.

But I do love thesis as well and the back end options for this theme are astronomical.

Thanks but this was a free studiopress download and in order to post a question in their forum,they want you to purchase a package. Do you know where I can post a question with studiopress free?
