Michael Koerner placed in this newsgroup an interesting comment:

-------------------------------------
Closing the fullScreen at the end of the show without returning to the
Outline view.
The fullscreen mode is another window. So, to modify the script, we need to
let the Outline Window to navigate to the calling page. We can modify the
script.js
file as below:

1. Open script.js file in Notepad.
2. Find the CloseWindow() function.
3. At the beginning of the function, add the following code:

if(!window.opener.closed) window.opener.history.back();
------------------------------

Michael's advise works perfectly when the presentation is watched to the
end. Then the "end of slide show, click to exit" message appears, and a
click leadsto the page where the presentation was started. However when you
leave the presentation via a hyperlink, the Outline Window Outline view page
is not closed and you end up with two windows. The webpresentation is
created with Powerpoint Office 2003, so a hyperlink is not opened in a
seperate Window.

Already found the answer myself. I made the hyperlink to end the show
instead of linking to another page.

But it would be nice if the whole Outline window could be skipped
completely. It's an ugly transformation, when the outline window pops-up for
a second.

Nice work Peter. Will have to check it our myself <g>

If you think it important to remove the Outline Window, I quote John Langhans :

-------------<begin quote>--------------
If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide additional options for distributing presentations in full fidelity,
don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft
at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

It's VERY important that, for EACH wish, you describe in detail, WHY it is
important TO YOU that your product suggestion be implemented. A good wish
submission includes WHAT scenario, work-flow, or end-result is blocked by
not having a specific feature, HOW MUCH time and effort ($$$) is spent
working around a specific limitation of the current product, etc. Remember
that Microsoft receives THOUSANDS of product suggestions every day and we
read each one but, in any given product development cycle, there are ONLY
sufficient resources to address the ones that are MOST IMPORTANT to our
customers so take the extra time to state your case as CLEARLY and
COMPLETELY as possible so that we can FEEL YOUR PAIN.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).

[CRITICAL UPDATE - Anyone using Office 2003 should install the critical
update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for
Updates".]

Hello,

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide this option/functionality in it's web output (without have to
resort repeatedly to manual workarounds such as modifying the HTML after
the fact), don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please)
to Microsoft at:
