Dear Justin
Greetings
I simulate HIV-1 Protease with its substrate for 20ns in cubic box filled with 
SPC water using the following parameters:

Unfortunately the dimer is dissociate to its monomers. what is the problem 
causing this unwanted event?
thank you very much for your considerations

I doubt it's actually dissociating. What you're seeing is probably a simple result of periodic boundary conditions.

If a trajectory that has been properly post-processed by trjconv shows a dissociation event, then you should be able to easily observe why it happens by watching the trajectory in your favorite visualization software.
