I repeat: The last POV-Ray version i used on Windows (which is 3.6) does 
not require you to click on anything when starting it and i have no 
reason to assume newer version behave differently.  If you think this 
description is inaccurate you are invited to accurately mention what you 
observe differently (so it can be checked if this might require a fix) 
but everything posted on this so far is either bluntly wrong (Darren: 
"merely refreshing the splash screen adds perhaps five or ten seconds to 
each frame of animation", Dre: "click ok all the time") or has nothing 
to do with this (starting renders from Moray).
