So you must access with
Preferences disable: #'Browser>>showMessageIcons'

Otherwise a new preference is added :-(

Unrelated, in a ObjectExplorer you can't click to get a menu on all
preferences because the ObjectExplorer show a abbreviated text: eg.
#'CodeHolder>>useMultiWindowBrowser' will show in the ObjectExplorer as
#'CodeHolder>>u...indowBrowser'
