Digg issues with my aggregator?

I use Thunderbird with forumzilla as my aggregator, been working great. But the past few days I have noticed that a lot of digg feeds bump me to the digg login screen instead of showing me the article. Has anyone else noticed this issue? It's hit and miss as to what displays and what gives a login.

I have the same problem with using Akregator in KDE with Konqueror, though strangely enough it works when I configure Akregator to open the link in Firefox. Happened right after the v3 conversion.

I don't know how it works for you, but even if I do enter my username and password, digg just sends me to the front page, and doesn't even log me in to the site, so I can't digg an article or anything. When I go in through the frontpage and sign on in Konqueror, still have the same problem with the inability to digg or participate. I do like the bit on the side of the new digg that lets you filter stories by category, but the login thing drives me nuts, and I'd gladly give up the filter interface for my easy login through Konqueror like I had before.
