    Hi, I've found it this interesting antivirus test:

    URL removed - pointing to a virus collectors lab as well - not tollerated - Forum Admin.

    The download link for the "full test results" is provided instead - direct download link (outdated winace version used:

    www.virus/english/fullxml/redirect.asp?id=144&type=dw

    The direct link was for commodity not leeching.... the homepage is clearly visible URL removed, first warning - Forum Admin

    Sorry - couldn't extract the outdated .rar file - errors pop up while trying. Apart from being a very outdated test, at least the "full test results" should have been accessable. Far from a reliable source for both reasons.

    regards.

    The link is valid 100%, i just checked it ;) Enter the website instead of leeching the url, then it'll work fine.

    P.S. Use winrar instead!

    I've downloaded both RAR files and worked, not so outdated I think although not exactly recently.

    VirusP,

    Got a corrupted file - have a good one in the meanwhile.

    Test bed info is necessary here to verify the test ;).

    regards.

    Hmmm, he's not offering a Virus Archive nor is linking virus binaries or source code in his page, the test seems interesting, so Why Delete The Website Addresso_O, collect virus is not a crime if he isn't linking publicly in his website, I think.

    RaLX,

    There are links on the site in violation of or TOS. In case one of our team members removes an URL, don't put it up again - play by the rules or don't play at all over here.

    regards.
