Unable to cleanup Troj/EncProc-U on iMac

unfit4duty

Sophos was unable to cleanup the above mentioned malware contained in a file named upd.DAT. It was first detected over a year ago but I have never been able to clean it up. Whenever I scan, it shows up again. Is there any action I can take to eliminate it?

    Hello unfit4duty,

    normally you can run SVRT no matter what AV you have installed. 

    The name upd.dat is known to be used by malware as well as legitimate applications. Anyway, if you want to remove it (it should be more or less safe to do so, if it's really some part of a legitimate application the name implies it's not needed for regular execution) you have to do it from the Windows side.
