Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0 SeaMonkey/2.17.1 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20130410205058 Steps to reproduce: Created an RSS feed with & (html & code). The & character itself breaks the feed and breaks the rss validation hence the code use. Actual results: Live bookmarks do not display the & character or the news title with it in. Expected results: It should display the title with the & character.
To be clear, you're speak of the Feed name itself, rather then article subject names that appear in the Feed? Have a URL where this occurs?

Never confirmed by a second user, no response to comment 1, so I close this one for now. @Reporter: Please feel free to reopen this Bug if you still can reproduce the problem with a current SeaMonkey version and a current OS and if you can contribute a step by step instruction due to <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/QA/Bug_writing_guidelines> (containing every key press and every mouse click) how to reproduce the problem reliably.

Re-opening... Sorry didn't get chance to reply to previous comment... medical complications. Right if you have a & character in the RSS feed (php generated or other) Seamonkey will stop parsing / displaying MENU items if you use the live bookmarks feature and have the RSS items show on the bookmarks menu. If you then replace the & with & instead it still fails to work properly. This is for the BOOKMARKS MENU ONLY... if you look at the RSS feed as a normal html page then it works fine and displays it like normal HTML. Sorry I don't have RSS feed at this present time to show you with.. but easy enough to reproduce - just setup an RSS feed and use the & and then & in the subject for each item and add the feed to your life bookmarks.

Possibly related: Bug 273886 - bookmarks don't decode entities in href @reporter: Without bug report due to guidelines, possibility to reproduce and some more information ("FF does the job", ...) nobody will care.
Summary: Live bookmarks do not work with & code → Live bookmarks do not work with ampersand as & code
