It's very annoying.
And BTW I don't think it's a good idea for WP to recommend that bloggers use other browsers preferred by WP developers: it's much smarter to use the most popular browser, which is used by more viewers around the world, Internet Explorer. That way, if there are problems for your viewers who use IE, the blogger sees them too, and can fix them, or alert Support.

Retaining support for older browsers means that developers cannot make use of the new technologies on the web. The notifications stuff from wordpress.com is one of those things that IE7 can't do.

You need to upgrade your browser version and can do that here http://browsehappy.com
If you are running windows XP and cannot upgrade to IE9 then you can download a Firefox browser at that same link.
