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.

  • Nathan, is there an uninstall tool available from Sophos to remove the AutoUpdater software?  The normal uninstaller is not working due to files being deleted earlier (I had it set to delete files it couldn't clean), and I can't seem to reinstall with the existing install in the current state.  I'd like to get a clean slate free of Sophos on these machines so I can reinstall from scratch on them.  Thanks for any help or tools you can offer.
