Posted November 22, 200618 yr Test out all the variants of this TEST virus (it doesn't harm your system). good anti-virus should pick up all 4 versions, CA (which I won't use anymore), didn't pick up the zipped ones. I'm sticking with Avast now: http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm
November 22, 200618 yr Administrator Yeah, EICAR has been around for a long while; though it's nice to see they added more to the tests.
January 1, 200718 yr This has been around for quite sometime. I like to use Avast and click those link. A Human Voice Will Say... "Caution A Virus Has Been Detected"... Hehe...
January 1, 200718 yr Administrator A lot of people really like that. When I first heard it I thought it was awesome.
January 2, 200718 yr If you really want to see how useless AV's including Avast are against a dangerous type of malware, give this test a try. You will be in AWE!. http://www.morgud.com/interests/security/d...imulator-v2.asp
