web2py.py has 2 useful parameters: -i and -p. Respectively, they make the application listen on the address specified after -i and at the port specified with -p. To avoid the widget from popping up, you should also pass the -a parameter to supply a password.
Special bonuses: there is a special value to pass to the -i option that makes web2py listen on all possible network interfaces (0.0.0.0) and a special value to pass to the -a option to keep the last password set (<recycle>). Summarizing, try to start the first time web2py with web2py.py -i 0.0.0.0 -p 8000 -a mypassword replacing the red part with your own password... then kill the process (or hit ctrl+c to let it terminate). From now on, you can start web2py simply issuing web2py.py -i 0.0.0.0 -p 8000 -a '<recycle>' and web2py won't ask for a single thing.
