Whoa, there!  GateKeeper is NOT responsible for any screen clearing that
takes place!  (Trust me, I wrote it... :-)  The most common culprits are
Apple's INITs, specifically AppleShare and Responder (Easy Access is not
a problem).

The solution is relatively straightforward; just rename the
offending INITs so that their names are preceeded by two spaces.  This
guarantees that they'll install well before all of your other INITs 
(including GateKeeper) and, as a result, (although they will still clear the 
screen) they won't erase anyone's startup icons.

Note that it's OK too rename AppleShare, but don't rename your "AppleShare
Prep" file or, I suspect, AppleShare won't be able to find it anymore.

I hope this helps,

P.S. Does everyone out there have GateKeeper version 1.1.1?
