List of Free Online Scanners 2011

What do the titles mean?

Browser - Scans are done inside your browser. A plugin is usually needed in order for a scan to take place. You will be prompted to install the plugin before the scan starts. NOTE: Internet Explorer is needed to run 95% of these links. It is recommended to use IE for them all!

Single File - These sites allow you to upload one (1) file you find suspicious. Most of these sites have a limit on the size of the file allowed to be uploaded. Be sure to check and make sure you meet their requirements.

Single File - Multi - This simply means that there are multiple scanning engines used to scan your file/URL.

File Analysis - Here you can submit a Windows executable and receive an analysis report telling you what it does.

URL Scan - These sites scan URL's and inform you whether or not they're safe to visit.
