I would have said 99% certain it was Sophos - except I've just removed the
exclusion and I now can't reproduce it. I'll leave it like that for a few
days to see if I can capture any more info for you.
Perhaps it was the combination of Sophos and indexing? Don't seem to be able
to test that either, though - I apparently have AppData excluded 3 times(!),
and the indexing UI only allows me to remove one of those.
Sophos was also responsible for another more serious error. I run svnsync
whenever my vpn connects, to sync the company repo to a local mirror. Very
occasionally, Sophos would interfere with that so that synsync complained
the mirror repo was damaged, then on the next reboot chkdsk would run and
fix errors. Excluding the mirror repo in Sophos has stopped this happening
since. I'm reluctant to remove the exclusion for that one again to provide
you the exact error message, as it's such a pain to recreate and resync the
mirror repo from scratch.
