We know filepro did not do it but since it affected my filePro
customer I took some liberty and suggested it might affect other
filepro customers. It is not like Credit is not an unlikely prefix
for a filepro output or process table.<br>
<br>
But it was a bit weird and gave me a chuckle.<br>

how this is an "strange filePro event" since it is more of a
"intrusive antivirus program" ... Perhaps, this program has a
"white list" where anything in ~filepro ~fp is given a pass?
<br>
<br>
lol, I am sure I am gonna get it for even thinking that a white
list may exist as the list itself could be compromised and hide
viruses ... what a vicious cycle.

I just had a customer call that is using a Windows Server for
filepro. They reported that an error indicated a file was not
found which turned out to be a file called "CREDITFM.prc".
<br>
<br>
We looked further and the "CREDITFM.OUT" was also missing as was
another form and process called "CREDIT2.prc" and "CREDIT2.out"
<br>
<br>
We searched further and it seems every filepro process and
output that started with the letters "CREDIT" were removed.
They had such files in two different filepro databases.
<br>
<br>
My guess is that these files were somehow tagged as possible
virus files and maybe removed automatically or a user somewhere
was queried about removal and agreed. It is unlikely that a
user searched out these files and deleted them for sport.
<br>
<br>
I am usually not surprised by this when I see filepro files
disappear. I had zero length files deleted - usually DATA files
which you don't notice until you try to change the map or expand
the file.
<br>
<br>
But if you have a customer on a windows server and files of this
type disappear maybe this will save you some time checking it
out.
<br>
<br>
I do not have the name of the virus scanner they use. The user
was not familiar with that part of the system.
