8.102 Antivirus for web question

Hello,

I cannot figure out how exactly is the WebSecurity->Antivirus working...

Let me explain what happened. After installing Astaro UTM on a PC and connecting everything... etc... Well, it works.

The thing is that when I tried downloading an exe file from the net it showed me some sort of downloading wizard that checked the file and then allowed me to save it on my PC. But it did that only once. It never happened again for some reason (and I like this feature). How to force the UTM to behave in this manner?

I have "Use AntiVirus scanning" enabled;
Max scanning size set to 1000 MB;
File extension filter does not contain "exe" (if it does the download gets blocked by the UTM)

The HTTP proxy always scans files for viruses, but you will only see the 'downloading wizard' if a download take longer than a certain time to complete.

If you want to make sure that the Astaro virus scanning works, you can test it with the EICAR Anti-Malware test file: http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar.com.txt
