    Hi,

    Sophos find Eicar - Files.

    The zip - Files will not detect on Firefox.

    Safari is full supported.

    Many Thanks Sophos


    MacHomeAV doesn't detect at the browser level; it detects at the On File Access level.  Because of the way Safari and Firefox cache and save their files, files downloaded/viewed by Safari will be detected immediately, whereas via Firefox you would have to explicitly access them or do an on demand scan of the location the file was cached/saved to.

    Needless to say, the file will be detected before it can "cause harm" (load, in eicar's case) no matter how it was imported to the filesystem.
