At the time of detection, the application databases contain no description of the procedure for disinfecting this object.
I want to download a virus for network to test code#
The application detected a partial correspondence of a section of object code with a section of code of a known virus. The object contains modified code of a known virus. You will be notified when an object of this type is detected. The object has been considered suspicious. The object contains code of an unknown virus. You can find the information that the object has been processed in the report on the application’s operation. The application could access the object but could not scan it because it is corrupted (for example, the file structure is corrupted, or the file format is invalid). The application identifies the object as a non-disinfectable virus.Īn error occurs while attempting to disinfect the object the action performed is that specified for non-disinfectable objects. Make sure you have resumed anti-virus protection after downloading the test “virus” and creating its modifications. Once you have added a prefix to the test “virus” save the resulting file under a name reflecting the “virus” modification, for example, having added the DELE- prefix, save the file as eicar_. Please note that the actions performed in respect of the objects are determined by the application’s settings. The third column indicates how the application processes objects with the specified status. The second column lists all possible statuses assigned to the object, based on the results of the scan by the application.
To modify the test “virus”, you can use any text or hypertext editor, such as Microsoft Notepad or UltraEdit32.įirst column of the table (see below) contains the prefixes, which should be added at the beginning of the standard test “virus” to create its modifications. To modify the “virus”, change the content of the standard test “virus” by adding one of the prefixes to it (see table below). You can also modify the standard test “virus” to verify the operation of the application. The application identifies the file downloaded from the EICAR website as an infected object containing a virus that cannot be disinfected and performs the actions specified for this type of object. īefore you download the file, you have to pause the computer’s anti-virus protection, because otherwise the application would identify and process the test “virus” downloaded from the anti_virus_test_file.htm web page as an infected object transferred via HTTP. You can download this test “virus” from the EICAR’s official website at. Never use real viruses to test the operation of an anti-virus product! However, most anti-virus products identify EICAR as a virus. The test “virus” IS NOT a real virus, because it does not contain code that can harm your computer. This test “virus” has been specially developed by EICAR (The European Institute for Computer Antivirus Research) for testing anti-virus products.
