https://www.virustotal.com/ does virus analyses using a number of commercial virus scanners. They scan files and URLs.
However, no virus analysis is perfect. Some scanners may have issues with perfectly harmless web pages or files, on the other hand brand new malware will probably not be detected by many scanners.
Before you run an executable from a suspicious link, think twice. Then just say NO.
Security experts may be able to safely run malware in a properly sandboxed environment, but if you're not an expert (and your question indicates that you're not) don't try it.

Hi...

i see a lot of link an many thrads...
some times i read something like this

Code:
http://rotator.[color=red][font=Verdana][Suspicious link removed][/font][/color].com/r/arvoredum/

but what about links not yet checked???

maybe there are a free, online service who help us to check a link, to be secure is not a virus, malware, or something like this?Huh

thanks!!!

It's pretty simple mate , what you can do is Install an Extension or Add-ons Anti viruses to check the website once you load it and It will tell you if it contains anything suspicious . I've found this one : https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/drweb-anti-virus-link-che/aleggpabliehgbeagmfhnodcijcmbonb?hl=en  (For browsers that use Chromium engine)
But you should check for more , I know that there is more advanced extensions then this .
