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

leftout

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.

    I don't want to sound like Captain Obvious here but for those still having the Shh/Updater-B items listed locally in their user client Quarantine Manager, did you check the items and click Clear from list?

    I was confused at first as well as I thought that something like this would be under the Perform action drop-down where the Move or Delete options were located.

    Captain,

    I did just that through the console, and it doesn't appear to change the local quarantine. Manually clearing out the quarantine on 700+ computer seems like an exercise in futility.
