you mean i need to check diffrent rule > i tried to enter and download the virus test for eicar but its the same no alert

No the rules are there, but not enabled
What I mean is they are not normally enabled
Those sid rule numbers are not enabled by default
One way is to go to rules and search for something like facebook in the search box
and the rules will come up
Me, I enabled all rules with policies
But if I want to use paypal or go to a social media site
I have to turn off one policy that blocks them, this one runs all rules
And turn on another policy, this one unblocks the rules where I want to go, like facebook
