I use ZoneAlarm Security Suite 6 and am having trouble getting rid of the Java.Shinwow.BA virus. Whenever I scan my whole Computer using the free Ad-Aware, about 15 Mintues into the scan ZoneAlarm virus scan results come up with the virus Java.Shinwow.BA. I can't get rid of the virus because in the treatment column it has error in it. In the right hand pane it says "No treatment available for this item". When I scan with ZoneAlarm with the latest definitions (without Ad-Aware running) the computer is completey clean. It hasn't done any damage yet I need a way to get rid of this virus because it get's under my nerves.

The folder where the cache stored is:-X:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javapi\v1. 0\jar\
Where, X is the drive letter where the Operating System is installed and <username> is the Username of the currently logged in user.
To completely patch this vulnerability, its better to update the Java Runtime …
