I clicked on the Eircar file link to start the download. As soon as I clicked on the link, Avast stated that the Eicar file was detected in C\windows\temp and gave me the option to delete to trash bin and I believe the second choice was delete permanently next restart. I chose the trash bin option, but noticed on the desktop that my trash bin was empty. I opened the trash bin and there were no files in it. My down load manager box was still open waiting for me to start the down load but I never did start it since Avast stated it was infected. I actually wanted to see when Avast would detect the test virus, before or after downloading. I did do a scan the windows temp file afterward and the file was deleted by Avast but just not to the trash bin.
