Can't remove Windows threat found on my Mac

izzyeckerslike

I ran Sophos for the first time a short while ago and the scan found one threat I have to remove manually  :  Mal/Zbot-I

But it's a Window (exe) file. and I have a Mac running Snow Leopard.  How can I get rid of a Windows file on a Mac?

All suggestions greatfully accepted.

    Hi, Christian.  Thanx for getting back to me.

    I tried highlighting the virus in QM then pressing delete and nothing happened.

    I see the path below in the threat details window.  It appears that the threat is on my backup drive.  Would a threat on my backup drive affect the performance of the computer's actual drive?  My Mac has been running slow for the past several days, which is why I downloaded and ran Sophos.

    Thank you.
