The Layered Service Provider (LSP) Chain is defective/damaged. The cause can be an Antivirus program or a Virus; another possibility is that by DLL’s were switched during installation or de-installation. This results in the daughter processes not being able to inherit open your Socket Handles In this example event the Sesam CTRL connection takes the SM_CTRLD_MAIN daemon call from SM_CTRLC, it opens the necessary Sockets and transfers/passes them on to the newly created daughter processs SM_CTRLD. Due to the defective LSP the Sockets can not use this information and returns during an operation, e.g. setsockopt() the following error: 10038 – The descriptor is not a socket.
