If financial information has changed, MLS will require you to start the backup process as you log off. However, when you are presented with the Save dialog, nothing stops you from canceling the process at that point. In this case, MLS will still remember that no backup has been done since financial information has been changed, and so you will have to go through the same process the next time you try to log off, until you finally do make the backup.
However, this is all independent of the Urgent Task issue. In fact, I just tested this again, and even though I made the required backup, when I logged back in to MLS less than a minute after making a backup, there was still an urgent task: MLS has not been backed up recently. I have seen this on my real stake MLS installation many times, and it is consistently reproducible with the test database as well. So although it's certainly interesting that there are some people who do not see this behavior, I think it's pretty clear that there is a problem in this area, even if we don't know all the factors.
Oh, and I really doubt that rebuilding the database indexes by doing a restore would have any effect on this particular issue, but I did that process just in case, and indeed, it made no difference.
