aMSNPORTABLE.INI CONFIGURATION
================================
The aMSN Portable Launcher will look for an ini file called aMSNPortable.ini within its directory.  If you are happy with the default options, it is not necessary, though.  There is an example INI included with this package to get you started.  The INI file is formatted as follows:

[aMSNPortable]
AdditionalParameters=
DisableSplashScreen=false


The AdditionalParameters entry allows you to pass additional commandline parameter entries to aMSN.exe.  Whatever you enter here will be appended to the call to firefox.exe.

The DisableSplashScreen entry allows you to run the aMSN Portable Launcher without the splash screen showing up.  The default is false.
