How secure are you when you are surfing the internet?


The best way to check the correct function of the virus protection is by means of a test virus. A test virus like for example the EICAR is identified by all anti-virus programs as virus. However, such a test virus does not spread itself and does not cause any damage either.

Test: Virus in a packed file start test

If the file eicar.zip is loaded on your computer, the protection function is not activated. We recommend to use SaferSurf in order to protect your internet access. For help, click here.



It is possible to generate a file on your desktop by means of a Java applet. If you click this file, a message is displayed. In the same way it would be possible to create a file in your Autostart folder and for example format your entire hard disk at the next system start.
