A simple notepad can do lot more work than just for typing text and saving the information. Read more about Notepad now,
1. Check Your Anti-Virus is good or bad
-> Open the Notepad and paste this:
X5O!P%@AP[4PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

-> Scan the file using your anti-virus , if it detects then it is good anti-virus.
Kaspersky 2010 detected immediately without asking to scan after saving the file in my system. So, I got good Anti-virus.
