Mine seems to be working fine now.  I have it collecting all the headers
on start up.  I seem to be having another problem now.  On start up, any
group that had new headers during the session, show as having new headers
when Pan restarts.  As soon as you either click on the group, or wait
while task manager checks for new headers, the state is reset.
