In order to do this, instead of un-ticking the application in System Preferences, you have to click on the application in the list and click on the "-" (or minus symbol" in the bottom right hand corner.

There's two parts to iStat Server: the GUI app and a background app. The background app will start on boot up anyway, so you don't need to add the iStat Server GUI app to your startup items. However, there might be a bug that's stopping the window of iStat Server from hiding... we're looking into that now.

New versions of iStat and iStat Server are being worked on.

iStat Server 1.1 is still being worked on.

We don't have deadlines... when we feel something is ready for prime time, it ships

I have this same problem on my HTPC box. Unfortunately it forces me to avoid using the app.
