We have a Visual Basic developer testing a VB program which needs to connect to our IBM i. Once connected, this VB program will simply call a stored procedure on our box, which retrieves a value indicating authority is passed, or not.
The program causes Norton to flag the program with SONAR.Heuristic.120, and deletes the VB executable, and forces a PC restart.

The developer has narrowed the problem down to a single line of code, which connects to the iSeries host.

cnHost.open()

Here's what the developer is telling me...

/I have defined cnHost as a variable instantiated to Microsoft's' ODBC Connection class within ADO.Net. The other class available from Microsoft is the OLEDB class. Both are similar. I tried both. There is no other way to connect to the iSeries Host except by the OPEN - regardless of the ADO.Net class being used and regardless of the programming platform being used (VB.Net, C#.Net, ASP.Net etc.) and regardless of the database (SQLServer, Oracle, DB2, Access, etc.). There's just no getting around this.//

So, why is Norton stopping us? Is there something else we need to do?
