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.

    You are correct, but after the script has been run and the issue corrected, it will not detect those 3rd party updaters as malicious any longer. The exceptions are added so you can run the script without re-quarantining the updater upon running the script.

    Once the issues are solved across the board, you can re-enable On-Access or remove the exceptions.
