I believe that is an alert notice.

I always thought it was a stylised lower-case 'a'.

Anyway, it's an alert notice. If you have turned off the pop-up alert window option in ZA then it puts that flashing bit on the systray icon.

There are times when I couldn't get anything done if I left those popup alerts on ...

haven't tried it in FOREVER (because i used to connect to the net thru my SMC barricade, and now i connect thru ICS because both my modems are in another box)

but if i remember correctly:

if you ALWAYS leave the popup window open, when you get new alerts it doens't try to bring the popup window to the front because the window is already open

i can't tell you for sure tho
