How to test your web scanner?

Hi,

Could some one provide some links of eicar test for webscripts (not the com or zip or exe or txt). When you know of other please PM me.

I want to check/test my AV's web scanner

Thx

 

Google is your friend.

 

kees i don't know if this helps but how about these links :

not to mods and admins, none of these tests are destructive

 

YEP, I did the same as Steve Ragan in his ForceField 'test'. Now having rising, Avast used to pop-up on some pages. Rising's web script module keeps quiet, that is why I started to think that Rising provided this only with IE (I am using Opera skinned as IE).

Regards

 

Zopzop,

Thanks, ran the tests (was OK). Still no pop up from Rising's web scripting shield (set the to ask me). I can recall a Eicar test on which the Avast web scanner popped up (was embeded in HTML script, in stead as a download to run)

 

You can see no pop-ups because the AV cannot see anything malicious - these are just tests . Moreover , nothing happened because the browser blocked them before anything happened . At least here , I use IE7 with default settings , the browser and MS Office asked me for the ActiveXs and the macros .

 

Same here with firefox!

I think the best test would be to visit all dark places you can think of with a sandboxed browser.
It's a real pleasure too

 

You don't really have to go to 'dark' places. Just visit some wallpaper sites, a couple of weeks ago the UAC window popped up when I visited one. I think they are worse than crack and warez sites, lol.

 

lol so true

 

Or to p0|n sites, when a pop up cames and prompts you to download: "blow****.exe*. lol

 

And you found this out by testing or......

 

That's what my cousing told me when I was removing "Spyware Storm" from his PC...I don't go to infected p. sites, only to clean p. sites

 

no need to ask
