I have been dealing with this Mal/Phish-A threat for a couple of months now. I keep getting a Sophos Alert to clean this Mal/Phish-A threat and when I clean it up, it pops up again. At first after a couple of days, now sometimes multiple times an hour. Needless to say this makes work very difficult, and I am also scared that the safety of my (professional) Mac is compromised.
The threat appears to be an email attachment always called FullDetails.html. I read my mails using the Mac's Mail programme, and this particular account is a gmail account. I use the imap.gmail.com server to pull in email.
The path of the threat is something like /Users/MYCOMPUTER/Library/Mail/IMAP-MYEMAIL@imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Alle berichten.imapmbox/Attachments/110344/2/FullDetails.html. I have tried the following:
Clean up the threat using Sophos
Scanning the computer (finding nothing every time) using Sophos after cleanup
Removing the attachments in Finder
Finding emails containing FullDetails.thml and removing the mails
Emptying out my trash immediately after
Threat keeps coming back. I don't know what to do. Please help!
