better yet, if your file is rather large and would take a long time to upload, you can do a md5 of it then search against the md5 hash in virustotal. Chances are someone else has uploaded the same file before.

We were regularly using this site while we troubleshoot the virus related issues. This was very helpfull when the antivirus were not detecting it even after scanning it we were able to find a fake files. Sometimes there are fake files for svchost.exe

Hi!

On the Network is much more web service like Virustotal, e.g. virusscan.jotti.org or virscan.org.

P.s. Best regards from Poland. Your’s site is very helpful for me (and I suppose not only for me…).
