Hello,

I tried chrome, Edge, Firefox and result are same. I use default settings and browser extensions are installed.
Do you know where is the problem?

Which component is it? I can't recognise it.

Besides Kaspersky, what security solution and extensions are you using?

Which component is it? I can't recognise it.

This is "Private Browsing" module, which is not available in Free version, but that module has nothing to do with detecting EICAR...

If Your KSCF can't detect EICAR, just run Restore Settings... check also additional security products in Your system, Windows Notifications settings, etc...

Try downloading EICAR from here (HTTPS) or here (HTTP) and see if it gets detected, it's mirror links from Kaspersky own servers.

Working here.

Here's an alternate site with eicar variants. I use it to check Defender/SmartScreen sometimes but these should work for any antivirus.

From here is working fine. I don't understand what the difference.

Can you upload a picture of the network configuration?

Weird, is the modules working? Try updating the definitions and make sure you didn't accidentally whitelist the file/website.

So what? It is harmless.

Alerting to Eicar is quite simple. It is a meaningless excursion.

What exactly do you want to know?

Yes, everything is on and working. All settings are default, no whitelist item or exclusion added and datebase is up-to-date. A tried reset settings and reinstall. I did fresh install on another device and the result is same. Kaspersky AV block files from eicar website just KSC Free not (just if u try from other source).

If you have the option enabled to always scan encrypted connections.

Yeah I'm know but that's not the point. This is an option to test your real time proteciton how works.
