    Dear Hugo van der Kooij,

    It depends on how antiviral check is actually implemented. If connection
    is broken immediately after signature is detected - there is no way to
    download infected file, because signature will not pass to client and
    client will not be able to use "Range:" header to resume partially
    downloaded file.

    If antiviral filter checks data _after_ all data received from client
    with 20% buffering yes, it's possible to bypass this check for HTTP,
    because there is no way (at least for HTTP/1.0 and FTP) to indicate
    error to client and make him to delete partially downloaded data.

    You can check it, by sending EICAR with some additional data: if you can
    find EICAR signature on the client after connection is broken by
    antiviral filter you can bypass it's protection.
