I have just read about it,
http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/shrenepoa.html
and
http://macuser.pcpro.co.uk/news/65025/mu261004t.html
can tell you more.

If you really have it, that sounds bad, and also contradicts that the 
virus has not yet been "found in the wild" as one of the links above 
said.

Bevare.
