Hello Angela,

Good Day, Yes, there are websites that offer free scanning of your USB drives. But I can say that stand alone antivirus software is still better than this online antivirus scan.

But if that is what you are looking for, check this site out:

• BitDefender QuickScan
• TrendMicro HouseCall
• F-Secure Online Scanner
• Virus Total

Hope this helps.

Hi Angela!

There are many ways to perform an online scan to your flash disk. But it’s more difficult to have in online than to have a download scanner. Nowadays, we are not sure about the website who offers online if it’s clean or it’s infected with a virus. So, I suggested downloading scanner and having patient to wait than to have doubt in scanning online. You can download it here

I tried checking out several popular antivirus programs if they offer an online scanner but the only one I got is the one from ESET. If you want to try an online scanner that doesn’t require any installation and runs from the browser, try ESET Free Online Scanner. This free tool from ESET allows you to scan and remove malware and can be launched from any web browser.

I just don’t know if the scanner or this tool allows for a second scan because it is meant only for a single scan. This ESET online scanner supports Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8.x, and Windows 10 including Windows Server 2003 both 32-bit and 64-bit. For the browser, it supports Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 or higher, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, and Microsoft Edge.

It requires 32 MB RAM and 15 MB free space.
