There's a malicious zip file titled "42.zip", It's known as a "zip bomb" because Its file size is only 42 kilobytes. But when it's uncompressed,it expands to 4.5 petabytes (4,500,000 gigabytes), crashing the antivirus program and then the system.

W-- fun fact #3246 There is a "Zip Bomb" called 42.zip that when downloaded is only 42 Kilobytes, but actually contains 4,500,000 Gigabytes uncompressed. The file crashes computers when Anti-Virus software comes across it during a routine scan and tries to open the entire file, using up all the computer's memory. No, this is not the Zip Bomb. wtffunfact.com
