EICAR Test Virus<br />

The European Institute for Computer Antivirus Research (EICAR) has developed a<br />

test "virus" you can use to test your appliance installation and configuration. This file<br />

is an inert text file whose binary pattern is included in the virus pattern file from most<br />

antivirus vendors. It is not a virus and does not contain any program code.<br />

Obtaining the EICAR Test File:<br />

You can download the EICAR test virus from the following URLs:<br />

www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/testfiles/<br />

www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm<br />

Alternatively, you can create your own EICAR test virus by typing the following into<br />

a text file, and then naming the file "eicar.com":<br />

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!<br />
