Try to download the eicar.com file, and save it on your local disk. Immediately after
you confirm downloading of the test file, the Web Shield will react to it with a
warning. This Web Shield notice demonstrates that AVG is correctly installed on your

If AVG fails to identify the EICAR test file as a virus, you should check the program
configuration again!
8.5. AVG Default Configuration
The default configuration (i.e. how the application is set up right after installation) of
AVG 8.5 Internet Security 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.
