I tried downloading all the 8 files from : http://eicar.org/85-0-Download.html - Avast blocked all the 4 files available on *http - Apart from the file '*eicar.com <https://secure.eicar.org/eicar.com>' ; I was able to download the other 3 files available on *https*. - Avast blocked my attempt at manual execution of the two zipped .exe's - I was able to open the downloaded .txt file (in Notepad++) - I deleted all downloaded files without a fuss. - It's still Tuesday the 15th on this end of the world. ~END~
