i have a question about get rid of irritating splash screens:

in mcafee virusscan 6, is the splash screen for vshield loading with windows xp causing problems or delay?, edit this simple registry entry and the vshield splash screen will no longer load at startup in windows xp home or pro only. first click start, then run in the open line type: regedit hit enter and registry editor should start. now goto this registry entry: hkey_local_machine\software\network associates\tvd\shared components\on access scanner\vshield\system scan\general in the right window, the last registry entry key should be --- > bskipsplash, double click on this value name to go into edit mode, then where the value data says "0" -zero, change that to "1". then just exit the registry editor and reboot, and now you'll notice the mcafee vshield splash screen doesn't pop up when windows xp starts now, vshield just quietly loads in the background and your windows xp system will start even faster! --good luck!!
