  I informed Lavasoft about this with version 8.2.0 version, but got no response. The free version of Ad-Watch will monitor processes, but does not have files protection. This may explain why it detects the file during a scan, but does not catch it as it enters a system.
  
  
  
  Thanks for posting, I've updated the info to Lavasoft so they'll see it again.

  Ad-Aware Free: Detects Eicar test file during a regular scan
  
  Ad-Aware Pro: Ad-Watch Live! detects Eicar test file as soon as it hits the hard disk.
  
  
  
  Thanks for the report.
