Well, it may not be on the splash screen itself, but there is a checkbox item to turn off the splashscreen. (Or at least there is in FrameMaker 8--I don't have FrameMaker 9, so I don't know if it's still available.) In FrameMaker 8, you use File>Preferences>General to open the Preferences dialog. The penultimate item in the User Preferences section of the dialog is "Don't show Welcome Screen".
