Yes, we are having the same issue, and are investigating it. To me it seems that vfp compiled exe files may just by coincidence match the virus signature for Genric9.BHVL. So far AVG anti virus identifies it but Mcafee does not. I have seen numerous systems with vfp EXEs that are no no way networked together have the problem.

I have also had it go off on a exe that was in an InstallShield install file. The Install file had not been changed in years and the install exe was clean. AVG did not go off until it was extracting the VFP exe.
