Is any one else seing this alert - Shh/Updater-B False positives

Virus/spyware 'Shh/Updater-B' has been detected in "C:\Program Files\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Web Intelligence\swi_update.exe". Cleanup unavailable. This is trickling in as alerts but at an alarming rate.

  • All of my enterprise is getting hammered with two virus alerts.  One says the following and doesn't indicate it's been deleted: 

    Virus/spyware 'Shh/Updater-B' has been detected in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins\Updater.api". Cleanup unavailable.

    Virus/spyware 'Shh/Updater-B' has been detected in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins\updater.api".

    The first one that hit says this and it does indicate it was cleaned. 

    Virus/spyware 'Shh/Updater-B' has been detected in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Web Intelligence\swi_update_64.exe". Cleanup unavailable.

    Infected file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Web Intelligence\swi_update_64.exe" has been deleted.

    Can't ascertain if we have a BIG problem or not.  Anyone familiar with this?
