Hello Anne
First of all, thank you for stepping in on an issue that you yourself have not 
even seen yet.  That is well appreciated :)
After reading your reply, I rebooted and logged back in to KDE.  The result is 
exactly the same as I described in my first email on this subject.  The 
circle/exclamation mark DID NOT return to the applications that had originally 
had it and that I had opened before the reboot.  That is good :)
Just for a test, I opened one the the applications that still had the 
circle/exclamation point over the icon, and the behavior was just like before 
the reboot: the application started immediately after I clicked "Continue"

One cool difference that I see after the same set of updates the resulted in the 
issue referred to in this thread is the change in the desktop effect "Wobbly 
Windows"  The wobble doesn't stop after the window is no longer being 
moved/resized.  It continues to wobble for a few moments...  Pretty cool :)

Anyway, I digress...

Thanks again for  your help so far,
Steven P. Ulrick
