In the windows enterprise console we have "Alerting for new Alarms" set to "Popup Message" to alert us of new problems. The majority of time this is good - it brings to our attention issues. However at other times it can be downright annoying as alerts continually bring the popup window to the forefront and I end up having to dismiss it over and over again while simultaneously trying to resolve the problem that created the alert to begin with.

I would be great if addition to an ok button there was a suppress button with options like 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours etc, which would tell PRTG not to display the window so quickly again giving me a respite from the barrage of popups.

See the following mockup for what I mean: Mockup
