Tell application "Finder" activate select every item of folder "Servers" of folder "System Folder" of startup disk delete selection End tell Then save this as a Classic Applet with the Stay Open option turned OFF and the Startup Screen option turned ON Place this file in the Shutdown Item folder of your System Folder. Restart. Now, every time you shut down the machine, it will clear out this folder and get rid of that annoying "Searching for server" pause. I have used to very successfully here on 5 laptops. Please note that if you have any AppleShare servers set to mount at startup, they will no longer mount.
