I want to add my voice to those already shouting: PLEASE ALLOW US TO TURN OFF POP UPS, NOTIFICATIONS, SALES PROMPTS, AND ANY OTHER FUNCTIONS THAT WE DO NOT INTEND TO USE!  THERE SHOULD BE A LIST IN PREFERENCES TO CHOOSE ALL THE ACCOUNTING FUNCTIONS THAT YOU ARE NEEDING, AND TURN THE OTHERS OFF.  PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! HEAR US!  WE ARE LEGION!
