The banner goes away when you close the program. One thing that is lacking however is the use of the right click menus a in some areas. Also, the advertising thing that they add to your browser is really aggravating. I wouldn't mind if it were added to the program only, but it attaches to your browser and anything you browse to you get the advertisements. Can display a large tree and one click gives you background information.
Advertising is very unobtrusive.
It was simple, and I haven't yet discovered all of it's features. I find it great for the first timer into genealogy. Especially being ably to share the program with family members. As expected, not all users are happy about GenoPro. All negative reviews about GenoPro are from reviewers disliking advertising.
