No-one here will send you one.

If you want to test it create a honeypot by doing the follwowing.

1) Do a fresh install of Windows XP Pre SP2 and install your AV
software.
2) Make sure the firewall and windows update doesn't work.
3) Establish a direct connection to the internet. If you're using a
router, place the IP address of the honeypot into the DMZ.
4) Create an e-mail account (not hotmail/gmail etc as they use AV
software) and make many posts on usenet using that e-mail address.
5) open every single e-mail that gets sent to that address.
