    Simply open GlueStrings.lua with an MPQEditor, extract GlueStrings.lua, change the code below, then save it, and patch it.

    Code:
    SERVER_ALERT_BETA_URL = "http://beta.worldofwarcraft.com/alert"; SERVER_ALERT_BUTTON_TEXT = "More Info"; SERVER_ALERT_PTR_URL = ""; SERVER_ALERT_TITLE = "Breaking News"; SERVER_ALERT_URL = "http://launcher.worldofwarcraft.com/alert";
    TO

    Code:
    SERVER_ALERT_BETA_URL = ""; SERVER_ALERT_BUTTON_TEXT = "More Info"; SERVER_ALERT_PTR_URL = ""; SERVER_ALERT_TITLE = "Breaking News"; SERVER_ALERT_URL = "";
    The location of GlueStrings.lua can be found at: World of Warcraft\data\enXX\locale-enXX.MPQ

    You might also need to change gluelocalisation.lua.
