Hi,

I should there should be a visual hint where you can enable it when you've
closed the dialog box with "Do Not Ask Again" checked. A little bit like the
current "Minimized to system tray" box some applications have. Maybe this is
not the best solution, but I hope you get an idea what I mean.

Best regards,
Hans Chen
