Limit the pop ups for the VPN connection

Problem:

There is an old and festering wound on The Total Security offer from BD which is the "Alert" about using a "vulnerable" network prompting the users to use the Bitdefender VPN, in principle I agree that it is good practice, but the execution here could be improved tenfold with some changes to the logic of when the prompt is shown and how it reacts to the user input.

Suggestion:

The "show pop up" code should evaluate if this message has been shown for this SSID in the current user session of the OS, this way it could still nudge the less technically inclined into improving their privacy and security and not drive the more advanced users or people who have subscriptions to other VPN services up the wall like the current implementation does. 😉.
