quarantine manager finds trojan, but then it disappears

i have free sophos for mac, and i get Quarantine Mgr tellin me it finds a trojan called something like "trojan/iframe/jl" but the button to activate cleaning is dark (not active) and then within about 20 seconds the message disappears, and there is nothing to clean. Any idea? (i googled but dod not find anything really similar). Thanks. Karl.

Hi Christian,
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
The following was the trojan in the logs: http://www.sophos.com/en-us/threat-center/threat-analyses/viruses-and-spyware/Troj~SWFRed-D.aspx
The trojan is: Troj/SWFRed-D
When I researched it on the link above, it said the "affected operating system" is Windows. In that case, does this mean it doesn't affect OS X? I would assume this is the case, but want to double check with you first.

Thanks a billion,
OceanDream
