NOD and trojan simulator

So I am playing with Trojan Simulator. I downloaded it to my desktop but didn’t unzip it. I did an in depth analysis with NOD and it doesn’t find anything. If I use the scan control to scan C drive using the clean button it finds it on the desktop and in Firefox cache but is unable to clean it. I have nod on demand scanner set to clean automatically, if that doesn’t work to prompt for an action. When I get a prompt it says the only option is to leave. Do I have something setup wrong? It doesn’t seem logical that NOD would have a hard time with a file that is so easy to delete. I can run a scan with TDS-3 and it has no problem finding and deleting the file.

 

For the moment, NOD32 can¡t clean or delete files that are compressed in formats like RAR and ZIP.
Note: In order to detect simulations like that (not Eicar), you need to enable potentially dangerous applications detections in the Scanner.

 

Itdetected it just fine. I was just curious why it wouldn’t delete it. Thanx

 

I did that. The only option it gave me was to leave.

 

Thanx ronjor I will try that.

 

When I right click on the scanning log for the on demand scanner it only gives me 2 options. The first is clear log, the middle one is clean greyed out. The last one is clear log.

 

Is this because it is still zipped up?
