I'd imagine you can fix this on a Mac by intercepting the apple event 
which is sent to the stack.

Under Windows, you would need to check the $1 variable when starting 
the standalone, or check the openStacks or some such, and if a stack is 
specified, close it right away, display an error message, and quit?  
(Just a guess)
