OK, this is a rant.

So apparently this little utility has gone from free to paid. I've had it installed for a couple of years on my Mac Pro, but now I'm being bugged to upgrade to a new version for $10. The dialog has a "Skip this Version" button, but clicking on it does not do anything, Each time I reboot the machine, I get the stupid annoying nag screen.

To the developer of iStat Menus:

I might have upgraded to the paid version if iSM had some killer features that I'd want, but the fact that you decided to nag me about it again and again and again has steeled my resolve not to. I'm going to uninstall this POS and get something else, even if I have to pay $20 for it.

Thanks for the link. Someone in that thread said there is an updater app that is responsible for the nag screen. I'll zap it.
