virus checker

I seem to recall on the old forums that someone posted a thread with a text string that could be copied/pasted into a document that when saved could be used to check to make sure that your virus scan was working properly.

can anyone find it?

edit never mind found it

My trusty AVG free edition worked well.

Also if anyone can find a crack for the AVG Spyware that would be great.
