I wish Magix would address this. Honestly, I'm not sure why they came up with that driver. Is it sort of their version of ASIO4All I wonder?

No, it's what it usually does when opening, checks for all connected devices (virtual or physical.
I had a feeling that the registry hack would be my only real choice, thanks for confirming.
I figured I'd ask those of you who have been using the program, just in case there was some hidden option I missed or a utility that MAGIX had made available to you guys or something.

I guess I'll make a reg file for the client that he can run/import to remove the entries, just in case MAGIX ever add the driver back in to the registry through an update.

Thanks, DJX

Oh sorry! Ok, and there's no way to tell Sonar not to scan at start up?

I'm thinking you'll have to go the registry route then.
