I downloaded and installed 4.0. Now every time I go into Visual Studio, a little popup comes up on my task bar notifying me of that I have the .NET TypeMock Evaluation. This is cool. But the little icon remains and every time I open Visual Studio it adds another icon. I have to close them manually. This is a nuisance.

Hi,
Thank you for the report.

This is indeed a nuisance and we are in the process of fixing it.
I'm sure that we will manage to solve this shortly so, and it wont happen in the release.

This is highly annoying for us.

We open and close visual studio a lot during the working day. It also steals focus from visual studio when you open it, so we can no longer use keyboard shortcuts without first clicking on visual studio after it is opened.

Finally, it can also prevent windows from shutting down. Frequently when I go to shutdown nothing happens. I kill the TypeMock process and then it immediately shuts down.

This popup is not at all useful for me.

Thank you for pointing this out to us.
What version of TypeMock are you using? Some of the problems should be solved in the final 4.0.
The focus problem could be annoying, we will fix this.

I just upgraded to the 401 build and I'm happy to see the multiple instances go away. It also seems fine shutting down the computer at the moment.

It still steals focus though!

We're about to purchase, so I assume this popup will disappear, so the point is moot for us. I'm sure it may annoy other people though.

Yes, the beta feedbacks where really annoying.
We will fix the focus problem, thanks for reporting this.

What would you think could be a better way to inform evaluators to send feedback. We don't want to annoy you, but we do want to hear your feedback.
