Lawl.
I dare you to copy and paste this line in your notepad and try to save it to see what happens.
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
The result quite amused me.

Well the text string above is used to test the functionality of your anitivrus. If your antivirus works, the moment you try to save the file will make the antivirus act up and see the file as malware.

Go there and try to download the TXT file. If your antivirus still doesn't act up, get a new one ASAP. If you have concerns about downloading this "virus", look it up on Google. |
