Its the two revision3 ones that podcatcher went nuts on. The cnet one is fine.
I have had periodic problems with the revision3 feed "download spam" moments as well. Podcatcher provides several means to handle new posts. For Revision3 feeds, setting the Download Based On option for a feed to "Date is new than last items date" (sic) seems to work best to minimize the "download spam" moments. It's not perfect because I think if you watch the most recent download, delete it, then restart podcatcher or reboot or something, podcatcher might re download some of the newer items in the feed again since the "last item" would be the next oldest item. I'm not sure about this side effect (it's a guess).


The version of podcatcher I have is 2.2.976.12. I think that is the latest version. I agree that it would be better to have the latest version pointed to by the first post.
