When starting RAM Map or refreshing its map page, McAfee pops a dialog box titled "Host Intrusion Prevention Intruder Alert" which says: "Attack Protect password hash detected from <my account> on <current date-time>"

When starting RAM Map or refreshing its map page, McAfee pops a dialog box titled "Host Intrusion Prevention Intruder Alert" which says: "Attack Protect password hash detected from <my account> on <current date-time>"
The box disappears after a few seconds, but it makes me wonder if SysInternals, v16, RamMap may be infected with something.
I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise with SP1, 8 GB RAM, dual core i5 processor.
Has anyone else encountered this behavior? Is it a false positive?
