Upon receiving a local connection string, the Firebird client will first
attempt to make a direct, embedded connection to the database file, bypassing
authentication but respecting the SQL privileges and restrictions of the
supplied user and/or role name. That is, if the Engine12 provider is enabled in
firebird.conf or databases.conf – which it is by default. If the database file
exists but the connection fails because the client process doesn't have the
required access privileges to the file, a client-server connection is attempted
(by the Loopback provider), in this order:

    Using TCP/IP via localhost;

    On Windows: using WNET (NetBEUI), aka Named Pipes, on the local machine;

    On Windows: using XNET (shared memory) on the local machine.

Perhaps this is what you are seeing ?
