I know you can do it.  I'll bet it's in the registry.  I haven't found it.

Another idea: it's an animated gif or avi with an innocuous name and you 
can substitute one of the same pixel size as long as you give it the same 
name and put it in the same place.  Because the Windows splash logo has a 
.sys extension even though it is a .bmp, the IE working animated logo 
probably has a disguised extension, too.  Let me know if you find it.
