patch for the outlook express splash screen

[jdeboeck]

If you want to get rid of the outlook express splash screen permanently without registry entries you can do this

open "msoe.dll" with a hex editor

look for the only occurrence of "NoSplash" and replace it with "VerStamp"

run modifyPE on the patched DLL

Outlook usually checks for the NoSplash key in the registry, but now it will check for the VerStamp key which is created automatically and always has a nonzero value...

Yes. Very nice find.

I will be using this now.
