I've solvd this problem by renaming "AppleShare" to "ZAppleShare", which 
ensures that it will be the last INIT to get control at Startup (which gives
me plenty of time to read the text on my "Bill the Cat" StartupScreen).  The
only thing you have to watch out for is if you have to re-install the 
AppleShare client software.....trash "ZAppleShare" first.
