Why this XML (RSS) fails on IE7/Validator?

I have this XML :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
    <channel>
        <atom:link href="http://www.montagnaconamore.it/rss/news.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" />
        <title>Adamelloski</title>
        <link>http://www.adamelloski.com/</link>
        <description>eventi del sito adamelloski.com</description>

    </channel>
</rss>
</xml>

if I try to open on IE7 it fails : "feed contains error". With this validator I get :

<rss version="2.0" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"> 
</xml>

What's happened?

When I use the validator you link to, it just complains about the </xml> at the end (you have no <xml> and there isn't one in RSS) which makes the document non-well-formed and would use an XML parser to throw an exception.
