I have a .net desktop application without a certificate on a network not connected to the Internet

When I start it, there is a call to crl.microsoft.com that times out and slows down the application.

I know I can put

<runtime>
    <generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false" />
</runtime>

to skip the check, but I'm curious to know what triggers this check and which certificate does it want to check? Is there a way to "sniff" that information?

  • I'm sure there is a trace provider that will allow you to "sniff" that. Possibly under the WIF or IIS types? – Christopher Sep 17 '15 at 14:02

This MSDN blog may help you

One way of doing this is listed below, but others are on the blog

REGISTRY  : HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters\SslBindingInfo 
DWORD    : DefaultSslCertCheckMode 
Value         : 1
