Use LinkScanner Online to inspect: Any link with suspicious characters or web site you have never visited.
If you'd rather be safe than sorry, enter the URL of the site or web page you want to visit in the box below. Our free LinkScanner Online service will visit the URL in a controlled environment on our servers. LinkScanner Online will inspect it in real-time for whether it is hiding any exploit code and, if so, what exploit.
Use LinkScanner Online to inspect:
- Links forwarded by friends
- Web sites displayed on search results
- Any link with suspicious characters or web site you have never visited
Why use LinkScanner Online?
Cybercriminals use "lure" sites to attract web users to sites they have invisibly infected with exploit code. This exploit code is then used to infect users' PCs with drive-by downloads of spyware, rootkits, and other malware.
- Just because you click a link doesn't mean you'll land on the site you thought you would
- Just because a site looks innocent doesn't mean the underlying code is harmless
- Just because a search engine serves up a listing doesn't mean you can trust it
