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,

    Thank you for the link. I have checked this but the following path and service do not exist on my SEC server. Please advise.

    1. Delete agen-xuv.ide from C:\Program Files\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\ [C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\]
    2. Restart the 'Sophos Anti-Virus Service'

    If that service isn't present, then I wouldn't expect you to have this issue. Did you have a SHH/updater-b alert on this system?
