A different and very useful approach to the online file scanners.

Comodo Instant Malware Analysis

Welcome to our new online Service for Instant Malware Analysis (CIMA)

CIMA is built as service in the cloud (fancy way of saying online service) where you can upload your suspicious files (only executables) and it will get analysed in real time and a report will be generated for your review. In this report it will tell you if it is suspicious or not.

As with anything else, nothing is 100% but we use this tool in our AV labs to help us. So we decided to make it available to all.

There are constant improvements going on this service to adapt to new emerging threats.

PS: anything you submit thru CIMA gets fed to our AV labs so any suspicious file will be then manually analysed and if found to be malicious a signature will be created and our AV will be updated in the next signature update.

I don't quite understand it yet. Going to play around with it more later..

Its still in the teething stage, I uploaded a couple of files and it was all greek to me. I will keep an eye on this one, once the bugs are worked out and it does the right job. I will add it to my list below

Here my list of online scanners:

Online Virus, Malware Submission Sites

• Jotti's malware scan
• VirusTotal - Free Online Virus and Malware Scan
• VirSCAN.org FREE on-line scan service
• Virus.Org Rogue File Scanning Service
• NoVirusThanks.org virus scanner

Come to think of it Safer Networking (Spybot) has a stand alone tool similar to this called FileAlyzer. But like you said, it's pretty much Greek to me. They also have RegAlyzer and RunAlyzer.

For a really long list follow the link and scroll down to see all of the online file scanners I have found. > Trusted security tools & resources. Some better then others, I have an obsession of sorts with lists and am always adding to that one...

Your Trusted security tools & resources is in my malware tools/online scanner folder. Good listings, keep up the good work and dont let your pen dry out.

I'm getting ready to add a new section for sites like vURL Online. I don't think that list will never be done!

Hello BM

CIMA is built as service in the cloud (fancy way of saying online service) where you can upload your suspicious files (only executables) and it will get analysed in real time and a report will be generated for your review. In this report it will tell you if it is suspicious or not.

I uploaded both zips and .exe files and I was clueless, I will stick to my list and EFs' until the bugs are fixed.

I even unzipped it as well

Needs a tad more work there me thinks
