Ok I found a website having a string that we can pas in Notepad and save with an extension like .exe or .com to simulate a virus. This way you can see if your software is correctly working and protecting your computer. In my case I upload this file on my webserver and as soon the upload finish the file was detected and moved by McAffe.

Here is the string you must save in your file to simulate a virus:

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

>we are making upload from user computer to our website. On our server we have McAfee but we want to make sure that the file uploaded don't contain virus. Is there a way to check if virus are present. I am thinking about fake file containing virus to check if McAfee automatically check file uploaded or a way to use foxpro with some code to force McAfee to check the uploaded file. This check must be done as soon as the file is on the server because this file will be available for other user a few seconds after.
