warning. This notice demonstrates that AVG is correctly installed on your computer.
From the
http://www.eicar.com
website you can also download the compressed
version of the EICAR 'virus' (
e.g. in the form of eicar_com.zip
).
Online Shield
allows
you to download this file and save it on your local disk but then the
Resident Shield
detects the 'virus' as you try to unpack it.
If AVG fails to identify the EICAR test file
as a virus, you should check the program configuration again!
5.5. AVG default configuration
The default configuration (
i.e. how the application is set up right after installation
) of
AVG Internet Security 2011
is set up by the software vendor so that all
components and functions are tuned up to achieve optimum performance.
Unless you have a real reason to do so, do not change the AVG configuration!
Changes to settings should only be performed by an experienced user.
Some minor editing of
AVG components
settings is accessible directly from the
specific component user interface. If you feel you need to change the AVG
configuration to better suit your your needs, go to
AVG Advanced Settings
: select
the system menu item
Tools/Advanced settings
and edit the AVG configuration in
the newly opened
AVG Advanced Settings
dialog.
