Popular malware investigator PeStudio has been updated to version 8.51 with extended VirusTotal support.
Drag and drop an executable onto the new build, and after checking the file with VirusTotal to see if it’s a known threat, a new Network Watchdog will update the VirusTotal score automatically.
Even better, the program now checks any hardcoded URLs with VirusTotal, too, so even brand new executables will be highlighted if they have references to a dangerous site.
Elsewhere, detection of pipes may give you a better idea of what a target file is doing, and there’s the usual assortment of maintenance tweaks and bug fixes (check ChangeLog.txt in the download to find out more).
PeStudi0 8.51 is a freeware application for Windows XP and later.
