Bell and Lock Icons - what do they mean?

I've looked extensively, but haven't found descriptions of the icons that appear at the bottom of the list of topics when you're on a board. That would be New Messages; New Messages (hot); New messages (blocked); No new messages; No new messages (hot); No new messages (blocked). New Messages is the only one that seems fairly self-explanatory, but even then, how new is new? How long will it stay up?

If someone could lead me to documentation on this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

An addendum to my previous posting, whoever might have the answer, could you email me at nancy@clubmom.com

"New" is either a new topic and a topic with new messages which YOU didn't read yet. It it marked as "new" until you read it, or until you leave the forum.

The best approach to be notified by anwsers is to register in the forum and select "Send notify when a reply is post" when writing the message (or clicking in the link "Watch", in the topic listing)
