What you probably don't know is that you can use a full UNC path instead of
a DLL name in the import section of a PE file. When the file is executed,
the loader will try to access the imported DLL using the UNC path and the
WebDAV redirector will download the DLL from the Internet.


Whilst using this technique to decrease PE size is quite interesting, I'd be 
willing to bet most here would already be aware of the redirector 
functionality when loading DLLs, as it was pointed out by Dave Litchfield 
over a year ago.
