Problem description

Some users may for various reasons want to disable the Norman splash screen which appears when a Norman product is started.

Problem solution

It is now possible to permanently disable the Norman splash screen in startup by replacing /SPLASH with /NOSPLASH in the Norman ZANDA entry in registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

EXAMPLE:
Norman Zanda = C:\NORMAN\BIN\ZLH.EXE /LOAD /NOSPLASH
Zanda will not replace a '/NOSPLASH' entry.

Note that if neither '/SPLASH' nor '/NOSPLASH' is entered, '/SPLASH' will be reinserted when Zanda is updated.
