SCEP 2012 trojan detection but no action taken.

Question

     
We had a recent detection of a trojan but the remediation was no action, we are not sure what this is trying to tell us since the severity is set to remove.
Malware Name: Trojan:Win32/Ropest
Number of infections: 2
Last detection time(UTC time): 8/28/2014 11:56:22 PM
Remediation action: NoAction
Action status: Succeeded

Answer 1

It could be that No Action is necessary because the infection is already gone.  To be sure, feel free to scan the device with another tool.  When I have doubts about something being cleaned, I prefer to use an offline scanner so that its unlikely
an infection can interfere with the scan:

I hope that helps,
