Which Free Online Antivirus Scanner is the Best? [Comparison Test and Results]
from howtogeek.com ................. There are times when an online or supplementary scanner can be very useful when cleaning up an infected computer or just to get a second opinion on the security of your system. With this purpose in mind, the good folks over at the 7 Tutorials blog decided to do a test using the ten most popular online security scanners to see what worked the best and what did not.

The following scanners were used for the test:
Quote:
Bitdefender QuickScan, BullGuard Online Scanner, Comodo Cloud Scanner, ESET Free Online Scanner, F-Secure Online Scanner, Kaspersky Security Scan, McAfee Security Scan Plus, Norton Security Scan, Panda ActiveScan and Trend Micro HouseCall.
Are there any online or supplementary scanners that you use and depend on? Do you agree or disagree with the results? Let us know in the comments!
