This is indeed an annoying feature. Why don't you offer to pay the author(s) of said programs to remove it or perhaps provide a patch which does so? What makes me want to barf is people who bitch about free software while doing little or nothing to help it improve. I'd wager that you have contacted exactly 0 authors and submitted 0 bug reports about this yet think complaining in a public forum is appropriate and will somehow accomplish anything. Incidentally, I *do* agree with the point of your complaint, just not how and where you presented it. Finally, don't forget: you can always ask for a refund <wink>.
