Just a quick question. Is it possible to remove old notices which have been read or viewed ? I regularly get a bubble saying there are new notices to view, but when I look, they are the same ones that I've already looked at.

Notices stay alive for 30 days, after that they're deleted automatically.
You can stop the bubble notifying you of new notifications by opening BOINC Manager, Tools, Options, slide the "Reminder" slider to Never, OK. That way the only times you will see 'new' notices is when you start BOINC Manager and it shows on the Notices tab in Advanced view that there are 'new' or 'unread' notices.

I think he is complaining about the server side where every post to a news thread pushes the notice again.
