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,

    The one system I checked by hand did have Sophos AutoUpdate Service running. I did a reboot, and that cleared up the "Updating Policy", as it now reads "Same as policy" instead of blank. I have now issued reboots across all the systems suffering this symptom, and they are all cleared up now.

    Thanks a million!

    I am running through some quarantine restores nows, that should be the last piece of this mess to clean up.

    Thanks to all who have helped throughout the past couple of days. Especially Nathan and the other Sophos support members that have helped out on the Forums and got the advisories and fixes out to us.
