Virus Total Change

Maybe I'm late to the party but this is the first time I noticed the change.

well i used VT yesterday and it was different then.

 

Depends when one last used it. I haven't been on that site for a bit, and the layout looks different to me.

Bloody hell!! The slogan on their blog is just ... Inside VirusTotal's Pants... Disgusting...

Anyway... I see they added new services in their URL scanning, such as Spyeye and Zeus trackers. They took away BitDefender, though. They don't explain why it was removed. Was it their decision or BitDefender requested it to be removed?

 

It's still there I just scanned a file and it showed up!

Heck. I scanned a few URLs and BitDefender is never show. I'm talking about URL scanning and not file scanning. Did you scan URLs and BitDefender shows?

-edit-

I scanned one more and it shows! I wonder if it only appears when it flags an URL? Odd.

 

-edit-

As you can see from the screenshots, BitDefender results only appear when it flags. Is it just for BD to look great on the picture? The others appear every time.

 

Maybe VT is still Tweaking?

TH

 

I hope so. Otherwise, it's a bit shady if BitDefender requested it, IMHO.

 

The URL scanner seems much faster & it is looking good. I like the big red/green thumb icon.

I'm a bit ambivalent about the new favicon though.

 

VT is working again here. Last month, for some unknown reason(s), it wasn't able to get a finished analysis - and I tried multiple times in different days.

BTW, great improvements.

 

and now i need a proxy to access it

 

I haven't been to VT in a while so it looks very different to me.

 

I like the new look too

FWIW here's a list of the URL scanning engines.....

New interface, New file size limit, New back-end engine. Great improvements.
