Thanks to all who replied. I think this answered my question pretty
well. It would be nice if MS changed the verbage in the description when
they distribute these updates to remove the "you are likely infected"
portion, but who knows when or if that will happen. Thanks again...

*All* updates that MS sends out for distribution via SUS will show up
for approval in *all* SUS servers; it shouldn't trouble you that it
shows up in the list.

I never approved the update. The fact that it even shows up in
the list
of updates to approve it what troubles me.

If you approve it for update in SUS Admin it will deploy it
whether
workstations are infected or not. Uncheck it in the Approved
updates
section and it will no longer be an issue.

Subject: Microsoft mydoom removal tool via SUS
We use SUS to distribute updates to our workstations and one of
the
updates that frequently shows up is the Mydoom removal tool. The
description says that the appearance of this update is a sign of
infection, but none of my systems show infection in Symantec's
SSC, and
Eeye's mydoom scanner shows nothing as well. Has anyone else had
this
issue? I assume at this point that it's a false positive, but
I'm
checking all my bases.
I apologize if this post is better suited to focus-ms.
