<DIV><SPAN class=697131016-06062014><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Can anyone confirm
if this issue, alerts.cfg regex ignoring $ (dollar), from 2006 is fixed in the
latest 4.3 code? I can confirm that it is not fixed in 4.3.7, but the
best work-around is to add an exclude. (Although that does not help if you
wanted to put the $ in your exclude. <SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10px"><SPAN
