I would recommend Firefox as an excellent RSS Reader. I've used IE7 and IE8 RSS Readers, but I think the Firefox one is nicer.
I don't know how you can limit it to only Wordpress (and further, Wordpress within your own company), but I would assume you would only subscribe to RSS Feeds that you wanted to follow... so this is probably not a big deal.
Finally, all three RSS Readers I have mentioned are free (although you do have to pay to get some kind of Windows to run IE7 or IE8... so strictly speaking Firefox would be a better fit).
Hope that helps!

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

A quick follow-up on this... I would consider using Google Reader as well. This is browser agnostic - so you could use whatever you liked.
Cheers!

I use outlook 2007 at work - it integrates nicely as a folder on the side underneath my "inbox"
At home, it's google reader - the first page to load when my browser opens.

GOOGLE is a great resource to find answers to questions like "how do i..."
If you don't know exaclty what you want to do or what to search on, try Google Suggest: --------
I have recently been semi-converted to ensuring all my code (well most of it) works in both javascript and non-javasc

it does raise the question: if the feed is produced within the company, and you only want this feed read, why do you need RSS and a reader? just produce a report that users can view with the relevant information.
to anwser your questions
2. if you only want the reader to read from this feed use your firewall proxy to control this.
3. again RSS is just a formatting standard. you could build your own feed reader using XSLT to transform the xml into human presentable output. a simple webpage that transfroms the feed into html would work. pull up the page and read through the events.

1. you cannot use the reader to filter only wordpress feeds. RSS is just a format. how/who produces the feed is irrelevant.

I beg your pardon, teh description was mot clear enough.
Actually we want read the feeds within the html page (e.g. javascrip) and display the preapred / filtered content in the browser window.
Wordpress within the same company. Changes on the wordpress side is not welcome, but ev. possible. This a company with over 25.000 users. There is only teh 4 standard Wordpress rss.
I hope this helps.
Warm regards,
Michel
