This even append to Arnold client when Arnold isi installed as a network workgroup. Seems like SI is loading options before network plugins.

If you have a solution to get rig of this message it woul be awesome!

  I don’t have Arnold, but I suspect someother plugin is forcing a rescan of the preferences during startup (by calling RefreshCustomPreferences).
  
  If you try with a workgroup that contains just the Arnold plugin, do you still get the error?

    That was it. It was the objDnD plugin that I downloaded from the net that was calling the RefreshCustomPreferences command during its initialization.
    
    Thanks!
