[hobbit] alerts won't stop

I'm still having trouble with Hobbit sending out "purple" alert messages for
a machine that was disabled weeks ago. I've removed all mention of the box
from the Hobbit configuration files and have even restarted Hobbit, although
I dislike doing so. Does anybody have any ideas on how to stop this? It's
beginning to annoy people.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
