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

    Nathan, I have a Sophos removal tool that support helped me with months ago built for some other reason.  Would deploying the removal tool, and then allowing the product to reinsall itself be a legit solution to this problem?


    Possibly, but I don't think it will be any easier than deploying the script from KBA 118323. I recommend trying that first rather than a full uninstall/reinstall.
