If you automatically want to show the feed xml instead of the feed content in IE, when viewing a RSS feed.
Disable the “Turn on feed reading view” setting.
Tools > Internet Options > Content > Settings > uncheck “Turn on feed reading view”
(after changing the setting, I had to restart IE)
For developing ODATA services, this can be handy.
Showing the feed: http://www.roelvanlisdonk.nl/?feed=rss2 will result in:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
– <rss version="2.0" xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/" xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/" xmlns:slash="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/">
