+# ChainDLL
+
+This utility will patch an exe file so that it will load specified DLL file on startup
+(prior to executing anything else).
+
+It is similiar to various injectors (CreateRemoteThread/QueueAPC etc), however it burns
+the LoadLibrary call into the target exe file and executes it at a well-defined point.
+
+It does not need a debug privilege either.
+
+If the burned in DLL path does not exist, or its DllMain fails for some reason, the original
+EXE binary continues silently.
+
+The DLL paths injected are always interpreted relative to the host EXE.
