Avast and UseSQLiteDatabase() = false positive

Using PB 4.31, UseSQLiteDatabase() is causing a false positive with Avast on my home PC (Vista) but not on my work PC (XP). Anybody else?
Code: Select all
UseSQLiteDatabase()
If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 400, 400, "Main", #PB_Window_SystemMenu)
Repeat
Event = WaitWindowEvent()
Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

With just that running in the IDE, no indications here on Windows 7 Ultimate with Avast, no indications here on the Vista Ultimate machine with Avast.

Thanks guys. Seems to be fixed with today's Avast update as no more false positives are being reported. Not sure why it was picking on me only.
I guess August 2009 just isn't my month.

Might have been a hash collision with the one in the virus signature for that virus?

that's a great service
I just uploaded one of my own programs and got
Rising 21.44.11.00 2009.08.25 Packer.Win32.LoveLHM.a [Suspicious]
would look like Rising has some problems with its Mojo
