This is probably covered somewhere else, but I didn't find it (search seems to be sort of hosed somehow).

Is there any way that BOINCMGR on Windows can be configured to startup directly to the system tray, without the big (kinda ugly since it's mostly blank) white window appearing in the middle of the screen for a few seconds while it's doing whatever it's doing before it minimizes itself?

Note that I am using the /s option, and have already attempted setting the startup shortcut to "run minimized" which hasn't helped.

Alternatively, is there any documentation on what command line options BOINCMGR uses to start BOINC (in Windows)? If so, I'd like to experiment with starting just BOINC itself and only running BOINCMGR when I need it. Or is this something that's only possible on non-Windows platforms?

Thanks!

I too would be interested in doing away with this startup splash.
