Looking at the Windows 7 Resource Monitor during boot-up, I am getting lots of reads on the eqgame.exe file via "svchost.exe (LocalSystemNetworkRestricted)"

Anybody know why this might be happening? Why is eqgame.exe being referenced at all when I boot my computer? I am curious if anyone else sees this when booting up their system.

I also noticed a lot of my Team Fortress 2 files were getting heavy heavy amounts of disk reads during boot-up.

Why would either of these things happen?

Was a valid question. Trust noone. Ok. Be suspicious at least.
