Test Your Antivirus - The best bloopers are here
I want to tech you how you can test your antivirus is up to date or not. This work for all antivirus like avg, avast and other.

First open your notepad and paste this code.

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-

TEST-FILE!$H+H*

You must make sure your code put one line on notepad. Like the video I made.

Now save that notepad save as ‘eicar.com’ and make sure the format file is save as ‘All File’. Close iit and try scan that file. Your antivirus will detact it as a virus. If your antivirus not detect it update your antivirus or change to new one.

Remember don’t panic! when your antivirus detect it as a virus. Just remove it. This virus that we create just for the test. Not the real virus!
