To Check Your Antivirus Is Working Properly

Try at your own risk....
I did try this. My antivirus alerted and deleted the file..

Open notepad
Copy this code in the text file....
"X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*"
without quotes....

Then save it with the name fakevirus.exe
If this file got deleted immediately that means your antivirus is working and updated..
