On the Web, nagware (sometimes called "annoyware") is programming that presents the user with
one or more pop-up windows or alerts when an application is launched or closed (sometimes both),
reminding the user to register, purchase the application, or take some other action. Nagware is
commonly used with shareware
programs that have been downloaded for trial use.
