If you click on Help/About..., does it indicate a very recent "DAT created on" date?<BR /><BR />Make a great day!<BR /><BR />Roger Sat, 30 Jan 2010 14:45:15 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/the-anti-virus-or-anti-malware-test-file/m-p/4574268#M9634 Roger Faucher 2010-01-30T14:45:15Z Re: The Anti-Virus or Anti-Malware test file https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/the-anti-virus-or-anti-malware-test-file/m-p/4574269#M9635 All tasks are enabled and I have the newest DAT update.

I somehow overlooked the word 'zip' in your original post. I'm glad you were able to solve the problem.<BR /><BR />Make a great day!<BR /><BR />Roger Sun, 31 Jan 2010 14:27:54 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/the-anti-virus-or-anti-malware-test-file/m-p/4574271#M9637 Roger Faucher 2010-01-31T14:27:54Z
