Manual cleanup

I scanned my computer (Mac OS X 10.4.11) and Sophos detected 3 threats, all of which the Quarantine Manager says can only be cleaned up manually. The threats all have the same name: Troj/ByteVeri-X . 


1) The instructions on the Sophos site say: "If there are any threats for which the action available is 'Clean up manually', create a custom scan". I haven't been able to locate the threats following the path and file name. Which file(s) should I custom scan? And what should I do about the threat itself after I managed to do a custom scan?

2) Also, when I clicked on "Troj/ByteVeri-X"  (= the threat name in the Quarantine manager) the Sophos Threat Analysis page that came up says that this threat only affects Windows. I don't use Windows, I believe, because I have a Mac. Does this mean I am safe and do not have to remove the threat?

Thank you!

  • Thank you, Christian.

    I managed to find the complete path, did a custom scan and cleaned up the threat following your instructions. When I scanned again the threat was gone. I also scheduled another scan for later today. I'll see what happens.
