The archive bit is ignored in TSM incremental backup attribute comparison,
and in anycase
I doubt that virus protection software modifies it (av software tends to
preserve  any changed
attribute data and reset it to the original value).

Maybe the Anti-virus software is changing the ' Archive Bit ' ???
