According to the National Vulnerability Database, this only affects the Microsoft Windows browser Internet Explorer, versions 6 through 9. That means it cannot do anything to your Mac.

It was probably downloaded to you Mac by interacting with a website that was compromised with the exploit.

Just find the file and delete it.

It's probably saved in your Internet cache, so just clear that.
