I had a similar problem that i never solved, except to disconnect the
relay board during programming.

I would like to know if any of the suggestions work. I was hopeful
with regards to adding a delay but from memory none of my code turns
on any relays until it get set a http request so i dont think the
delay will help.

I also have the issue that while in reset some relays turn on.  I had
assumed at PIC design HQ that some mechanism would have been employed
to high Z all the ports during reset.  From memory when held in reset
some pins are high some are low.

And if you can not be sure about the state of any pins during reset or
programing then it would be very hard to build a hardware lockout as
suggested.
