Hi, I looked into your bug report and checked with the vendor: this was
a debugging breakpoint they accidentally left in the software. It does
not affect how Tecplot runs and is not a virus and should have no other
effects. It has been removed from new versions of Tecplot and should
go away when we upgrade.
