Continual IO between explorer.exe and abyssws.exe

[Draelen]

As part of an initiative to track down bottlenecks on the system causing constant light HDD usage, I found that every second, filemon (from sysinternals.com) shows the following activity:

11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 OPEN C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS Options: Open Access: All
11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A
11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 CLOSE C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS
11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 OPEN C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS Options: Open Access: Execute
11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS Length: 110592
11:52:47 explorer.exe:2416 CLOSE C:\Secuint\Server\AbysswsV2\abyssws.exe SUCCESS

Now I know from something I read earlier that two abyss processes exchange information, but id like to know how to reduce the above constant access by explorer's inteference with abyssws.exe
