Hi!

VFP EXE consists of 2 parts - code for running VFP interpreter engine, and a resources containing a lot of VFP compiled code and module files. Probably that program (Verisign) overwrites something in the resource file by mistake. It is better to contact the company supporting that program (Verisign) to ask if it works with VFP modules at all. Also, they probably will be interested when you will show them such kind of bug in their program ;)

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
