Troj/VB-CRD message

I just scanned my MAC and the quarantine section lists the Troj/VB-CRD as found. There is no record of this showing, and no one knows about it even SOPHOS data banks. What gives, does any one else have this problem, and how do you get rid of it..

Re: Troj/VB-CRD message

The Troj/ VB part indicates that this is a Windows trojan written in Visual Basic.  According to our internal database, this particular trojan masquerades as, among other things, regsvc32.exe (a core part of Windows operating systems).

 

So to get rid of this malware, you just have to delete it; it isn't infecting anything on your Mac, it's likely just sitting in an email archive or download folder.
