Do a little test to your antivirus:
Open notepad, and copy the following text into it.
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
Save it as teste.com
If your antivirus assumes teste.com as a virus, it is working fine, otherwise change your antivirus.
(The file teste.com will not affect your computer. It just tests your antivirus application. This files exists in Panda Antivirus Website just to test it).

Talking about Notepad, ready for some magic?
- Open notepad
- Write down: "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
- Save it (the filename doesn't matter)
- Open the file, et voila!
Tested under Windows XP

LOLOL It's funny :D
My Antivirus AVG 7.5 has detected that file as virus. It works fine ;)
-
Mine didn't:o

Hi Matt.
Which is your Antivirus' name?
-
Zone Alarm works fine.
Bush did hide the facts,haha;D
-
Mine got it, NOD32
-
Both my scanners got it (AVG7.5 and aSquared Free), although I don't run them in the background (manual weekly scan).
-
The moment I pressed enter to save the file Norton popped up like 1/4 of a billion second afterwards, to tell me it put the file in quarantine and destroyed it :o
Awesome test ;D
-
Just tried it, Antivirus instantly removed it after i closed notepad, should be working just fine;D
-
It worked perfect with my Norton. Thanks for the tip.
