seeing the alert for new rss messages, even though I have disabled the alert

I'm using version 2.0.0.5pre (20070701)

In my options, I have "When new messages arrive" "Show an alert" disabled.

But when I get new rss messages, the alert box shows up in the bottom right.

The alert box looks odd, however.  Let me get a screen shot.

I am not seeing this anymore, and now I'm running version 2.0.0.5pre (20070702).

mscott, could it have gotten fixed during that window?

The new message notification isn't used at all for feeds...

That's odd. Could it be an extension? (Or some other feed aggregator) I have never seen it...

I don't have any add-ons, besides talkback, at least according to the add-ons UI in tbird.

Even odder: mxr isn't willing to admit that string "newsfeed" as used in that alert exists.

100% sure.  I guess that's why the alert looked "odd" to me.
