Sophos AV claims to have found a virus. Where can I see details of what this virus (Mal/ResDro-B) is supposed to do?

I have managed to discover the "Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux configuration guide".

This has told me how to check if SAV is running (in the apendix!)

SAV is currently scanning my home directory and has discovered 'Mal/ResDro-B'. (in a wine app)

Rather than simply delete it (or whatever), I would first like to know what this particular virus will/does do.

Giving it a specific name suggests to me that there is a list somewhere with descriptions of where/how/when/how many/etc... WRT this virus and all of the others that SAV is programmed to discover.

Where is this list? And/or how do I get detailed info about specific threats?

Thanks.
