Conclusion
There is actually a twelfth unmentioned entry-point lurking in the shadows -- "VB Callbacks" for Visual Basic modules. And, if you use PEBrowse to examine .NET managed assemblies you will have a slightly different set of entry-point options available to you. With these and the discussed items, you have a large number of points at your disposal to begin that investigation of the 3rd party module and to create the comfortable, familiar reference point. Obtaining copies of the debug symbols helps to improve most of the above options. But, if you do not have access to these or source code, using PEBrowse will give you a fighting chance at figuring out what the unknown code is doing.
