Desktop BBC News is an application that sits on your desktop - or at the front - that shows you the latest BBC headlines. You can choose which news category you would like to monitor and click on any item for a summary; click Read More if you would like to view the full story. Stories can be read using the system's default browser or a specially-created feed reader based on the Internet Explorer engine.
Desktop BBC News requires Windows Vista or higher due to its dependence on version
4.7 of the .NET Framework.
