I want to disable the nagging upgrade ads for Parallels 7

I'm a paying customer, and I paid for Parallels 6. To have near-daily ads for Parallels 7 floating onto my display is unacceptable. I don't want it, I am not going to buy it, and I want these ads removed. How can I disable them? The "Do not show again" button does literally nothing, and a new ad simply pops up a few days later.

 

Do the Parallels staff not use these forums? I posted this weeks ago, and none of the staff felt it necessary to get back to me on this issue?

 

Bump, again. I want an answer on this one, and I'm not paying for telephone support in order to get one. The way Parallels treat their paying customers is an absolute joke.

 

Leaving this up top.

 

Agreed completely.

What kind of professional software includes ads? Can you imagine if something like AutoCAD or Office pulled something like this?
