Does moderator get notified when new post appears?

I had posted a new thread about what I thought was malware, then I thought it was resolved. I recently found out it may not be resolved, so I posted again on the same thread.
I don't mean to be impatient, but I would like to know if I'm wasting time waiting for a response.
Does the moderator get some kind of notification when an old thread gets a new post?
If not, they may not think to check it since my last post suggested the problem may have been resolved.
Should I just post a new thread? I don't want to break any forum rules, and I'm sure multiple posts could:confused slow things down.
Thanks.
