[QUOTE="Jaspion, post: 923400, member: 8794"] Hi folks, if I can make a point here about the request to make WVSX detect the Eicar file. It would be pointless. Because what's the purpose of the Eicar file other than to test if your AV is working? But in this case you would have a signature-based detection, which doesn't help tell you if your AI-driven AV is working -- even if they did detect it, it wouldn't have been the AI. Just like in any other AV, the Eicar file allows us to test only if the signature-based detection is working, but it tells us nothing about components such as BB, HIPS, AI, etc. Unless I'm missing some point here.
