Graham, I think this link was posted on here recently. If not then I apologise but M$ seem to have found a resolution for network shares dropping out intermittently, which as Christof says is one cause of the error:

Have you found any way to monitor the network for timeouts? I think this network has issues because I know when I try to copy new exes on it will tell me the file is in use, the server open files shows the exe as being open several times on each pc (single instance exe so isn't possible) and when I check these pcs they are switched off. The hardware guys don't understand or don't want to understand so don't bother investigating. Only this one site reporting reporting problems. All very strange. Graham, Usually index corruption or a corruption of the DBF header. Normally copying the data to a new table then zapping and appending back cures the problem. The cause of the corruption I most often found was network timeouts caused by cheap network cards or switches.

The app is vfp8/codemine8 with a SQL 2005 database. I'm just trying to pin it down to see if it is antivirus or power saving etc. Also asked the hardware guys to see if anything appears in any of the log files. Has anyone come across a definitive reason for this error?
