Usage
Writes an EICAR test file to all paths specified in our AV Exclusions documentation and verifies all extensions in the documentation in a temporary folder.
If the file is removed then the path is not properly excluded from AV Scanning. IF the file is not removed then it should be properly excluded.
Once the files are created it will wait 5 minutes for AV to "see" and remove the file.
