Cannot find threats Sophos says I have

Just tonight downloaded 8.01C.  I did a scan and found some that it could remove, and others to be removed manually.  Most of them there was no problem, but the last two I can't get.  It says I have "Troj/Femad-E" and "Troj/ByteV-Fam."  It says they are both in ".jpi_cache," except that I can't find that folder following the supplied path, and cannot find it with the Finder search engine either.  Actually, I can't even find those specific Zip files with the Finder either, and that's looking via elements of their real Filenames as given by the Quarantine Manager.

So I have two Trojans that Scan Local Drives was able to find, but nothing else can locate.

Any thoughts?

  • Those files will likely be in the (hidden) java cache.

    Try going to the finder, typing command-shift-g, and pasting the path into the dialog (without the file name).

    If there's STILL no path there, the cache has likely already been flushed.  Just delete the entries from the Quarantine Manager and you should be fine.  Neither are Mac-targeted malware.
