Sounds fine. The splash screen pops up, apparently, because your
configuration does not prohibit that. I think the note is harmless.
If you need to use the registry, it might be a problem. But
honestly, what is the registry anyways? If you are asking us, then
you probably don't need it. I never have (although, it doesn't
seem to exist under UNIX)
