I'm guessing this is starting to fall out of the scope of WiX discussions
unless my problem is directly related to the use of the WiX VB.NET custom
action project in some way.
Any help greatly appreciated!!

When you say SCPs is used to pass property values to the execute

Our in-house repackaging stuff contains scripts where antivirus is not a
