Why does ACDSee access Winsock reg keys when launching?
SysInternals RegMon shows that when my ACDSee (ver 3.1) launches, it
accesses all of the keys and subkeys in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2
where I have got 26 catalogue entries. For example it queries keys
like this one:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock
2\Parameters\Protocol_Catalog9\Catalog_Entries\000000000023
Should a graphics viewer like ACDSee be doing this? It seems to make
for a slow launch of ACDSee.
If not, then how can I prevent it?
