Can't remove Mal/Badsrc-C

iJohn

I recently ran a scan and it found two instances of Mal/Badsrc-C.

While this only affects Windows PCs, I'm not too worried about it, but I can't delete it either.

Sophos tells me that it has to be manually cleaned, but when I go to the Sophos site, it tells me to use the 'Clean up' option within the application, which I don't have the option to click.

Any ideas?

    It was located in the .Spotlight-V100 folder. I used an app called Main Menu to clear the Spotlight cache. I then went into the Sophos Options. Under "Scan Local Drives", for When a threat is found, I chose "Clean up threat". If clean fails, selected "Delete threat". It needs admin priviledges to scan, but it found and deleted the threats for me. That seems to work. I haven't ran a second scan yet to see if it's totally gone.
