Annoying QB2007 reminder

I am running QB 2006 and I keep getting "reminded" about upgading to QB2007. Can't get it to stop. I've marked it as done, I've clicked on the link (aka advertisment). How can I stop it? Thanks.

On that forum was a link to another site that gave instructions on how to eliminate that. Here's the link to that.

Haha, hurt them in the pocketbook, that's all that Intuit will understand. The sales person is in the midst of trying to sell me their POS package for $1200. I told them they can first stop doing their stupid advertising through the reminder window so don't call me to sell anything else until they can patch QB2006. Cost 'em a few commissions and maybe they'll get the idea that it might be nicer to sell software that the users like, not to serve the purpose of Intuit. Intuit is truly the god of spam. Buttholes!

Sigh.

Remember the irritating "A door is ajar!" nag on new Cadillacs?

Thanks but that is to disable popups. I just want to mark this particular reminder as done. Yes, it's their sleazy way to push upgrades but it's hidden and doesn't even show up in the list of reminders (Company->Reminders).

There's got to be a way to get this to stop. It comes up want you open a company and I have 2 companies so I get a reminder every time I switch between the two wich is several time a day.

Any ideas (other than bashing Intuit)?

Okay ... finally got the answer so thought I'd post it to close out this thread ...

Apparently, this reminder will automatically stop after 15 days. Intuit pushed it on their entire customer base because if you run Vista, you need QB 2007 and they are getting a lot of complaints about QB not working. Of course, the software knows perfectly well what operating system it is running under and they could have only sent the alert to Vista users but why not annoy the entire QB community when you have the opportunity.

They probably felt that they might just scare a few innocent folks into upgrading to 2007.
