Is there a startup addon?

I want a light and simple addon that will skip the stupid Bethesda/Havok/Zenimax ads that I have to hit escape 4 times to avoid every blasted time I start the game. Is there such an addon, or better yet some option setting that I'm overlooking?

    In the UserSettings.txt of the game there is a setting. The file is one directory lower than the add-on one.
    Change SkipPregameVideos to 1.
    SET SkipPregameVideos "1"
    Then it skips.
    I have not used it but I think the add-on ESO Toolbox may expose that setting also.

    Exactly what I wanted, thank you.

    I really wish Zenimax would get a clue and let you skip it without having to go to such lengths. It can't be good for business to have your users start the game annoyed at your company. Most other MMOs just keep the ads on the splash page, if they have ads at startup.
