try these two things

1) open IPS policy, frm the frm address / To address is your internal iP then add it under exclude host option

2)edit the ips policy look for the SID and make it allow

I wouldn't recommend excluding the host or allowing the traffic for this signature without determining whether or not it's malicious.

Is the traffic inbound or outbound?

I would make sure you get more details before you start excluding hosts.

You need to disconnect those 7 hosts from the network and run scans on them with the latest definition set.

You should also make sure these machines are fully patched.
