Online scanner of individual files similar to Virus Total and Jotti.

http://www.virscan.org/

1, You can UPLOAD any files, but there is 10Mb limit per file.
2, VirSCAN supports Rar/Zip decompression, but it must be less than 10 files.
3, VirSCAN can scan compressed files with password 'infected' or 'virus'.

Thing I hate about AVG Antispyware is that it always detects my online banking website as a harmful cookie and I don't know which it is or else I would set it to my ignore list.

It removes the cookies to the site, then when I relog in I have to go through a crap load of security steps because the bank doesn't recognize my PC because of the cookie is no longer there.


Anyone back with Chase, and have the same issue?

You can set it to "Ignore once" at the end of the scan.
