 * Hello,
    I’m having issue with pings, most services, such as technorati, are rejecting
   my pings for reasons such as:
 * Technorati.com:
    Application failed during request deserialization: undefined
   entity at line 5, column 36, byte 131 at /usr/local/lib/perl/XML/Parser.pm line
   187
 * 3 Others:
    XML error: undefined entity at line 5 XML error: not well-formed (
   invalid token)… parse error. not well formed. error occurred at line 5, column
   66, byte index 139
 * My feed is:
    [http://www.segurosypolizas.com/feed/](http://www.segurosypolizas.com/feed/)
 * It passes all Feed Validator tests:
    [http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.segurosypolizas.com%2ffeed%2f](http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.segurosypolizas.com%2ffeed%2f)
 * I’m lost with this.
    Would appreciate any help or ideas, thanks.

 * Try removing the “ó” from your blog title temporarily and trying it again.

 * Thanks! Was happy thinking at last I found the problem, **but no.** 🙁
 * I removed it, and continue with the same problem.

 * I think it’s probably something to do with characters with accents, as I see 
   others on the ‘net have reported similar problems with Technorati, so it might
   be worth having a play around removing some of those from the title, tagline,
   meta tags and alike to see if it is that. Otherwise, dunno, sorry. 🙁

 * Just as an update, I’ve been doing lots of testing trying to find the cause. 
   When I remove accents, the problem persists. _It shouldn’t be that anyway as 
   I have other wordpress sites without that problem._
 * I’ve been testing disabling plugins, one at a time, and so far no success. Only
   thing I’m missing, trying with other theme, though I believe themes dont affect
   the feed. But no success yet.
