Do you sync through an iDisk?? I had the exact same problem and  
eventually figured out that RSS feeds could not update unless I turned  
the iDisk synching off (and it has been working like a charm since  
then).
If you select the RSS streams in the bookmarks and force OW to check  
then, they should update without problem.

I reported it, and I really hope it'll get fixed for 5.7 soon... I  
miss my iDisk syncing.....

PS: if you don't sync through an iDisk, there is also the possibility  
that one of your RSS streams is failing badly and stops the checking  
altogether., You should take a look at the network trafic and errir  
log when the RSS streams are updating.
