Hey so I was searching the internet for some ways to test my PC's Security programs, and I found something called the EICAR Test.
To test it, copy and paste the code below into a text document, such as Notepad and save it as anything.
After saving it, Scan it, and see what happens.
I know pretty much any Anti Virus/Spyware software will pick it up, but it's also good for seeing if your software is legit and not a rogue.
