For opening local files, there's a registered handler for the file type.
Take a look at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htmlfile\shell\open\command
which specifies the program that will open the file. You might be able
to substitute your own handler, which just logs the request and then
passes it off to the original program. The handler for internet protocol is
under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTP\shell\open\command,
although you'd probably also need to change all handlers that point
to your web browser (https, ftp, etc)
