Andre, no need to apologize -- the above is a very good suggestion.
This problem has turned into great learning experience. It's ironic how
the most painful problems usually yield the greatest insights, knowledge,
etc.

Using good old fashioned strings and Andre's suggestion I have isolated
the registry keys requiring read access for Everyone (which did not
already have it) to the following:
1. HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock\Parameters
2. HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\Parameters
I guess that the above is no great surprise.
BTW, not having read access for Everyone on the above keys causes the
following exim error messages:
1. IPv4 socket creation failed: Operation not permitted
2. cannot find smtp/tcp service when starting daemon
respectively.
