Hi, I have a similar problem with another Windows virus Mal/DrodZp-A. I use Sophos Anti -Virus home edition software version 9.4.2 on a current model retina iMac running El Capitain. Today while downloading a Kindle ebook from Amazon I got a Sophos threat detection message regarding a Mal/DrodZp-A malware threat. I opened the quarantine manager and briefly saw the threat there. Seconds later it vanished leaving the Quarantine manager empty with a green tick and “No items are quarantined” displayed. This process recurred about 5 minutes later and then again hours later after a re-boot. The only evidence remaining of the attack is in the log which reads; com.sophos.intercheck: 2016-03-15 09:01:42 +1000 Threat: 'Mal/DrodZp-A' detected in com.sophos.intercheck: Access to the file denied and the second incident 5 minutes later reads the same (and then another). I am a bit confused and insecure about this. Has Sophos successfully dealt with and removed the threat (three times?)? Or has the malware evaded Sophos in some way and need to be removed? How come I can’t see it’s location in the log? I understand that this threat targets Window OS but I don’t want my mac to be a carrier of a threat to others. I would be very grateful for any advice/reassurance re this Sophos detected threat alert, Thanks, Pete (Brisbane, Australia)
