Matt, I've heard about that feature but I don't think it works. I always have the I-boxes hidden and the only way I know that they are updated is if someone tells me.
Anybody have any beef with me turning off that feature that unhides the ibox when there is an update?
I'd like it turned off... it is annoying and you can unhide when you need to.
Another option would be to bold the unhide option when something has changed so a person could make a decision about whether they want to check or not.
