Regedit.exe and Global Hook- FYI

Doing an Export in Regedit.exe shows:

Welcome to DiamondCS Process Guard.
This program does not need to be running for your system to be protected.

Added to PG and Options-Allow Global Hook. Regedit.exe is in C:\Windows

 

Hook type 0x7 is WH_MOUSE. Why Regedit wants to hook mouse input when exporting, I'm not sure, as it only occurs after the export occurs - not during. I wouldn't be very concerned about it though, it looks OK from here.

 

Thanks Wayne

I suspect there will be several/many more like this as time goes on...Windows does strange things for sure .

 

I get the same thing here, WinXP Pro. Strange.
