[A:B:C]

A = generator
B = sid
C = rev

Generator ID's are found in src/generators.h.

So the 1 is:

        #define GENERATOR_SNORT_ENGINE        1

So Snort generated the alert of SID 0 and Revision 0.

Something's not right about that though, as there is no SID 0.  Do you
have sid-msg.map and gen-msg.map correctly installed?

Cheers!
