Scan a website for malware with multiple Scanning Engines

Urlvoid is a new online service by NoVirusThanks that allows users to scan a web address with multiple scanning engines for malicious contents.

It uses scanning engines such as Google Diagnostic, McAfee SiteAdvisor, Norton SafeWeb, MyWOT, TrendMicro Web Reputation engine and more for analyzing a web site address to detect any possible dangerous.

However, remember that even if a site is listed as clean by all scanning engines, there is no guarantee that the website is harmlessness.

At present the analyzed reports are cached for 5 days to avoid the scan of the same website for too many times in the same day and to not stress the engines in use.

Before visiting any doubtful site, check its reputation with Urlvoid
