Here is a quick guide how to test your antivirus program.

Don worry this is only a test file so you'r computer is not in danger

Open notepad and paste this in:
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

It must be all in one line.
When you paste this in, click File and Save as...
Name it "eicar.com" (without ")

If your antivirus doesnt recgonize it as a virus, you better change it. =)
