Need help with Amazon RSS product feeds converted to HTML

    Is anyone here using the Amazon RSS product feeds on their site? If so, how are you doing it?

    The way I am currently doing it, I grab certain RSS product feed from amazon, then use a free RSS to javascript convetor to convert the RSS feed to a script. The script is then put on my webpage.

    The problem is - the converters are changing my Amazon Associate ID, so Amazon does not recognize it when a product link is clicked. This means I do not get credit for the sale.

    Over the past weekend I have tried a dozen sites that offer free RSS to HTML conversion and all of them rearrange my associates ID.

    Can anyone tell me where to find a RSS to HTML convertor that will retain my associates ID?

    Is anyone using Carp from the geckotribe - http://www.geckotribe.com/ Its the only program I have found that retains my Amazon Associate ID. The free version does not display images in the feeds, and product key words are not linked back the amazon. The full version is $47. Before I spend that money, I was wondering if anyone is using it and can they provide me with a link to a working example?
