The screen is cleared when they initialize the Window Manager in their code. This is done because the INIT may bring up a dialog requesting the password. This is strictly against MacDTS guidelines, but they do it anyway! What I've done is to rename it xAppleShare so that it runs at the END of the INIT sequence. Its much less irritating this way (although xAppleShare then is last in the Chooser list too). Andy Peterman
