>>It is running,  set to remind me in one week. Does the  calibration  
unit need to be plugged in all the time for the nagware to work ?  I  
usually don’t have it plugged in if I’m not running Photoshop or  
light room as I don’t care about ambient light under normal  
conditions, and it eats up a usb port.

No, the Spyder doesn't have to be connected for the nagware to run;  
but some people are determined to turn the Utility off, and that will  
certainly stop the nagware from functioning. It a much less common to  
see situations where people are willing to leave the Utility on, and  
don't get the nags. You'll probably need to create a support ticket at  
the Datacolor website to figure that one out.
