Scan Website URLs For Viruses and Malware

The internet is littered with malicious websites. These sites have only one goal, to implant a virus or malware program on your computer. While most Anti Virus software will block these malicious sites and display a warning, some can avoid detection and reek havoc on your computer. On October 9th 2009, I experienced that the hard way when a software called Security Tool bypassed my Anti Virus software and downloaded itself onto my computer. To prevent this from happening to you, I recommend scanning any new or suspicious site before visiting.

Scanning websites for viruses and malware is simple and easy to do. Just choose from the list of online virus scanner tools below and enter the URL of the website you intend to visit.

• VirusTotal - Scan URLs and computer files.
• AVG Threat Labs - A quick scan with easy to understand results.
• URL Void - Scans with numerous programs and provides detailed results.

Browse safely.
