Hack that makes all dll segments writeable

Good news, I found a hack.

Somewhere inside dao360, it tries to load the database - and for that it uses a
string "[ESRI Countries]" from inside the .text segment of IFsGUIprj.ocx.
It replaces the last character of this string with '\0', and then ']' again
multiple times, no idea why though. If you make the memory writeable, the
program seems to work just fine.

See the attached hack/patch to test it yourself.

Maybe the .ocx should be loaded as writeable? Or something else is wrong. Will
continue to investigate.
