Antivirus and Thinapp

$

Hello,

 

I am evaluating Thinapp and am concerned about AV integration with the product. Is it possible for a desktop machine running the Thinapp streamed appliation to scan the application for viruses. Eg, I have packaged Winrar and replaced the Console RAR Manual text file (RAR.txt) with the eicar.txt file. If I open the file RAR.txt file (which is now actually the contecnts of the eicar.txt file) the AV on my desktop does not detect it. It is only when I try and save that file to the computer that the AV detects the eicar virus and acts upon it. Is it possible for the AV to detect viruses which are contained in streamed packages?

 

Thanks,
