BredoZp-B not staying in the Manager [Updated]

Hi,

I have found a bit of spyware on my system, its called BredoZp-B but it's not staying in the Quarintine Manager long enough for me to find out where in my system it is, as soon as I open the Quarintine Manager it disappears, but it keeps reappearing back up in a few hours time,I run Windows on BootCamp as well as my main OS X Lion computer.  Do you think it's safe enough to run the Windows Partition & run MSE for the duration of a full scan?

  • BredoZp-B is a Windows-targeted malicious email attachment, which is why you're seeing it come and go -- it's in your mail cache, which gets purged.  BredoZp-B usually shows up in those UPS/FedEx/DHL emails saying your package has arrived/is delayed/etc. and to open the attachment.  The attachment is a botnet installer for Windows.

    The easiest way to remove the malware is to delete the emails from your mail client.
