VBS Malware Scanner
![[Image: 16i8l7r.png]](http://i50.tinypic.com/16i8l7r.png)
What is it?
The VBS Malware Scanner is a comprehensive state of the art virus scanner, being flexible, portable, and fast, it is the easiest way to stay safe on the internet.
VBS Malware Scanner is best used in combination with a traditional anti-virus and firewall, to compensate for their short comings. Much unlike it's counterparts, that try to charge $80+, VBS Malware Scanner is 100% free, with no adverts, trials, or reduced uses.
Why is it needed?
Traditional anti-viruses do work well, however, they will only pick up on an infection once you are infected. This can be unsafe, due to today's world of fast evolving viruses that will have spread to your whole computer before your AV can even alert you.
VBS Malware Scanner allows you to to scan a file in a safe environment, without running it, and against a database far larger than that of any traditional anti-virus. In fact, nearly 25 times larger than most commercial anti-viruses.

Cool, but how is it that you have a database larger than a commerical av's? They actually get paid to do their job.

Good work, I like it. I may use it but when new infections come forward will they be added to your database?
Also coded in what? VB?

Do you have the latest .NET framework? It's coded in VB.NET, so you need 3.5, or 4.0 Beta.

Exactly, they get paid, that's their downfall, they compete with each other, and don't share information. By doing this they can see "Hey, only we can protect you from XXVirusXX"
However, look closely at my wording.
Quote:against a database far larger than that of any traditional anti-virus.
It would be impossible to one person to create a virus database that would even be noticed, let alone usable due to the huge amount of malware.
However, there are many free databases on the internet, by cross-referencing these, I can identify infections, and return a result.

I'll try and update the .net framework and then post back to let you know if it works or not.

Does this scan multiple files? If so, a heuristic approach would render this low class. :p
