Unix Filepro 5.6 (at least)

Filepro users,
One of my accounts is experiencing a very strange issue. They have a
few filepro files that will work perfectly and the next time they try to
use the file it reports the map is invalid.
If you look at the system, the map will have 0 length- and is certainly
invalid.
This has happened to more than one file.
This has been noted to happen day or night. We had an incident last
week where they used the file and came back an hour later and the map
was zero length.
They use terminals that are Windows machines running an emulator. (I can
not remember which but I know it is not ANZIO.)
We have actually changed the system entirely since this started
happening on the Unix side.
I think it is something running on Windows - like a virus scan or
malware software that thinks map is bad and might scan all computers in
the network. The tech has "supposedly" looked at this possibility but
did not find anything.
It does not reset all maps - they have quite a few of them - just a
select few and seems to hit the same ones over and over.
Any ideas?
