How to do test your antivirus?????
Start < Run < Notepad < Then write this code:-

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
and save this file as virus.exe.

I prefer to save this file on desktop.

As soon as you save this file, your installed antivirus should detect a virus.
And if it does not then I advice you to change your antivirus.

My antivirus caught it. What about yours????????

Well, I tested this with Avast antivirus.

Note: And after that delete the file you saved. Do not try to run that file. And just give your antivirus a try. Do not be scared, it will not harm your computer.
