    There's not much mention on TG but this might get you hooked: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...4dUDCAw&uact=5.

    It is a very powerful utility program that can do just about anything, which is what throws most people.
    At its simplest, you can set up a HotKey that acts as if you have pressed a number of keys on the keyboard.
    It is able to detect when a Xara window is active and only invoke those commands.

    If I run AutoHotkey, I can fire up a Window Spy.
    Hovering over the Nag screen, I get the following hooks:

    • Xara Web Designer Premium
    • ahk_class #32770
    • ahk_exe WebDesigner.exe
    • ahk_pid 11860

    From there is is a simple task to force the offending window (ClassNN: Internet Explorer_Server1) to close when found.

    As I have set up other mechanisms, I cannot do all this up to prove it...
