VirusTotal Reviews

Amazing! This product is just fantastic. I can't believe how well it works. Seriously, it's a game changer.

Honestly, I haven't used it myself, but I've heard folks mention that "VirusTotal" might have a virus and that it can’t be used safely. I’m curious to give it a shot, but I’m a bit skeptical since I’m worried about my computer getting infected. So, I’m left wondering if there’s any truth to the claims about VirusTotal having a virus.

This is the top-notch free service you can find to ensure the safety of websites. Some sites still raise red flags, so I recommend steering clear of them if VirusTotal gives them a clean bill of health.

Thanks a ton!

I primarily utilize VirusTotal to check out files and websites. It allows me to analyze a file and see results from various antimalware databases, which gives me a more comprehensive overview. The free service they offer is super useful.

1. Customer support is totally ignoring my requests. There's a complete lack of interest in understanding the issue and taking any responsibility.

2. It features some absurd antivirus programs that really shouldn't be taken seriously, as they flag almost anything as harmful just to look busy; otherwise, no one would even notice these silly AVs.

3. This leads to a situation where VirusTotal, when used by regular folks (not developers or IT pros), becomes a hassle because three negative results from unknown antivirus programs can easily freak out the average user.

This is a real disservice to countless developers and software companies.

VirusTotal continues to list these ridiculous antivirus programs just to inflate their numbers, and honestly, I think giving it one star is being generous; it deserves a negative rating since it's harmful to developers.

Fantastic website! The variety of scans available is top-notch. Seriously, folks, you gotta give it a go and stick with it. It's especially essential for PCs—make sure to use it often. Don't forget to scan all your downloaded files, and check out those shady URLs and websites too.

This website is fantastic for keeping your computer safe from harmful software or websites. It's super easy to use. Just upload a file and let it scan. This site has saved my YouTube channel countless times.

I've been using this site for quite a while now, and it's truly one of the top places to check downloaded files for malware, pulling results from over 70 antivirus tools. Plus, it can show how a file behaves by listing all the files it generates, the domains it contacts, the process tree, and user feedback can help figure out if the file is really harmful or just a false alarm. It can also check if a website is spreading malware by providing scan results from a wide array of antivirus programs. This site has really helped me stay safe while browsing.

This tool has come to the rescue of my computer countless times, and I can't express how thankful I am for it. Big shoutout to the folks at virustotal. Seriously, you all rock!

This website lets you scan your questionable files for viruses and malware right online. Just upload your file, and it’ll be checked for you. The interface is super easy to use, making it simple to get your task done fast and accurately.

This has rescued me from malware on several occasions, though it can occasionally flag things incorrectly. All in all, it's a good idea to run this before grabbing any files online.

This site is the real deal for scanning. It employs around 70 different engines to analyze a file. Some folks claim it’s a bogus scan because it flagged a couple of items, but that’s what’s known as a 'false positive.' This often happens with game developers and such. I’ve been testing a bunch of files using a Virtual Machine (VM). Pro tip: If you’re planning to run viruses, definitely use a VM instead of your main machine. Trust me, I’ve made that blunder, and let’s just say dealing with ransomware is no joke. It’s really, really bad.

I use this every day before grabbing stuff, but just the other day, I ran a download link through it. It claimed it was safe, so I went ahead and downloaded it, only to find out it was a virus. Shaking my head.

Major issues:

1) The way scanning works varies significantly across many engines when compared to what a typical desktop user experiences.

2) It features absurd antivirus programs that really shouldn’t even be taken into account, as they label nearly everything as harmful just to get attention; otherwise, these silly AVs would go unnoticed.

3) Consequently, when regular folks use VirusTotal (not developers or IT experts), it becomes a hassle because three negative results from obscure antivirus programs can easily freak out the average user.

This situation is detrimental to countless developers and software companies.

VirusTotal continues to list these nonsensical AVs just to inflate their numbers, and honestly, giving it 1 star feels too generous; it deserves a negative rating since it harms developers.

This is an awesome tool for scanning any websites and files you might have, helping you check for viruses using a bunch of different tools available. I really hope we can add more features to it down the line, like additional functions.
