I figured out where my problem was. When you create a filter it only becomes "available". To make it "active" you have to explicitly assign it to a feed by right clicking said feed and click "add/remove" filters. Once i made my filters active, it began downloading as expected :) Maybe the interface should be a little clearer to explain this distinction,my 2 cents would be call the filter list "filter library" and put the number of active filters in parentheses next to the filter name. And/Or a label saying "You have defined filters but none is active. To activate them , do X" What do you think ? Thank you for making this great software, 4.2 seems to rock. Since i'm at it i think it would be great to have an indicator somewhere that ports are forwarded properly and /or that is has no probem receiving incoming connections. What do you think ?

the feed is updated, so matching items should get downloaded.
