Testing EICAR sample anti-malware testfile

Anyone noticed a change in the blocking of the anti-malware testfile at www.eicar.org. I used this site to test whether my web filtering is working correctly for detection. The results is now allowed

To block and get the block page I have to enable "Block" on the category "IT Services", which means any site under the IT services category will be blocked.

You can use the Sophos Test Site under http://sophostest.com/utm/ for testing the web filtering too.

Best regards

Alex

Thanks Alexander for the link. . Please ignore my initial post. I was using FF v71.0 and not sure why it is bypassing proxy, but MS Edge and Google Chrome browsers work as expected.

Would appreciate if someone can confirm

Thanks

Do you use some kind of security/tunnelling/privacy ad-on for FF?
