When you subscribe to a channel from the Channel bar and then update the
subscription, a gleam may not appear on that channel's icon even though
the contents of the subscribed Web site have changed.
This behavior is by design.
When Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 checks a subscribed channel for
updated information, it only checks the actual subscribed file. If the
subscribed file changes, a red gleam appears on that channel's icon. If
the subscribed file does not change, no gleam appears on the
subscription's icon. This is true whether or not any other file in the
subscribed channel has changed.
