In fact, after a simple google search ("splash screen" "security center" "mcafee") here is the solution:

** If you're familiar with the registry editor:

in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run add the parameter /nosplash after the startup line of mcagent.exe.

** If you're not familiar with the registry editor:

Be very carefully and don't do anything else then described here:
1) Go to Start > Run
2) Type in regedit and press enter.
3) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
4) There you'll see a list of programs which start up when you boot up Windows. Double-click on MCAgentExe.
5) Add the parameter /nosplash to the end of the shown string, so you will get something like:
"c:\program files\mcafee.com\agent\mcagent.exe" /nosplash
6) Close the Registry Editor and reboot your PC.



EDIT: this is even listed on the McAfee help pages as well!
