No need to hack up AppleShare. Just rename it so it loads (and clears the screen) last. I renamed mine to yAppleShare, and it works just fine. The only side effect is that it now appears at the bottom of the Chooser menu instead of at the top.

There used to be an init called noicon that stopped this icon parade. It's still listed in the 00init-abstracts.abs file on sumex-aim.stanford.edu (in the info-mac/init directory), but the init itself is nowhere to be found. Anyone know what happened to it?
