The Biggest Mistake in Windows 7 and such, Task manager does notfocus on harddisk performance !
Oh forgot to mention one thing...
Apperently procmon is reading hosts to get this DNS or more likely it's using some reverse DNS lookup service/api from windows to convert IP to DNS, that's probably it. And apperently windows takes hosts file into account with that. That's my best guess for now for what is happening. Bye, Skybuck. |

TCPView will tell you if an actual connection formed. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sys...nloads/tcpview Wireshark tracks packets, but that's only going to work for communications that make it to the NIC. An attempt to communicate where a connection doesn't form (to localhost), that might be harder to trace. The Firefox processes need to talk to one another, but it would be easier to use pipes (named or otherwise) to do something like that. Things like Remote Procedure Calls, work just as well locally as they do remotely. This is why your computer will make lots of RPC calls that terminate on localhost. And why RPC is a dependency of just about ever Service in Windows. Paul |

There was no relationship between the key pressed and what showed up, though. However, what went down the wire was right and it would properly print anything that came back from the other machine. |
