Again, yes.  John is using the Fedora version:

[whooper@whitebox whooper]$ rpm -q rhn-applet
rhn-applet-2.1.2-WB1
[whooper@whitebox whooper]$ rpm -q --changelog rhn-applet | grep -A 5 2.1.0
* Wed Oct 15 2003 Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com> 2.1.0-1

- added support needed for Fedora Core: Yum repositories,
  multiple sources, and possibly no RHN channel
- translation strings update

[whooper@whitebox whooper]$

If (when) John updates to version 2.1.4 the prompt to register also goes
away:

That can also be fixed by touching /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid.
