« on: April 17, 2014, 01:01:44 AM »
Why on earth does AHfilm.exe need to access the internet to watch a film? Please advise.

If it takes full power to taxi to the hanger, your gear is probably up.

It doesn't.  What are you seeing that indicates it is?

My Webroot Security comes up and says,

 This application is attempting to contact the internet and is untrusted :AHfilm.exe

I just verified, in debug, the film viewer is not even initializing the winsock stack in Windows.  Without that, it cannot talk to any network connection.

Your program is either misinterpreting something, or something bad has attached itself to the film viewer.
