Don,
       Which version are you running?
       In my Mac, I renamed the .unidata folder and start fresh. First, I 
started the IDV 5.0, and I got the new version popup, and I clicked the don't 
show button, everything is
normal. The second time I started the IDV, the new verion popup again (bug?), 
but no more after that. I didn't have any problem of projection. 
       I think Julien fixed this bug in the 5.0.
