Extension Tests
Same tests as above, but the
extension of the file has been changed.
If your anti-virus software only checks
certain extensions, ignoring mime-types,
then this attack will thwart your
A/V efforts.
- eicar.bin : File EICAR without its extension EXE but BIN
- level1.bin : Level1 file without its extension ZIP but BIN
Encoded Virus
Tests
Similar to the above test,
but now the files have been UUencoded
and the extensions changed.
- Level2uue.bin : UUEncoded file level2.zip without its extension
zip but BIN
Compression

Tests for different compression
types. With or without proper extensions.
Mail Attachment Tests
