To add to the questions, can you tell where the message is actually  
coming from?  Is it a pop-up, and is there any hint whether it's really  
from KMM or from some Gnome component?  How long after you start the  
price update does the message appear?  (I'm wondering if some Gnome  
component just has a shorter timeout than the KDE or Windows  
equivalent.)
