I agree, this is highly irritating for me, so much that I've considered ditching the program. I can be typing an email, chatting with someone, playing a game, viewing a website/filling out forms and the friggin' thing pops up over-top of what I'm doing and interrupts me. I've never had an anti-virus, anti-malware or any other security type software that couldn't be adjusted to work silently in the background. I also use Windows 7/64 bit. I surely hope you will consider this in an update. It's annoying as hell. You should hear me cussing the program every time it happens.
