Improved wording, or at least I hope so. Also removed inappropriate backticks.

| Nov 9, 2015 at 15:11 | comment | added | Kyslik | Guys! Chillax; virustotal is a service where you upload file, or checksum of the file; and then virustotal checks this file/checksum against 30-40 virus databases from vendors like ESET, AVG... etcetera. So there is no harm what so ever (only UPLOAD). I myself use virustotal to make sure when I download any kind of file from not known source; I don't own any other anti-virus program; and have no issues since 2008 (win xp pro) or 2010 (laptop - win 7 pro). I personally trust vendors like Kaspersky, ESET, AVG if all 3 are green then file should be fine. | |

| Oct 26, 2015 at 15:11 | comment | added | Lucas Leblanc | @NamGVU According to them. Frankly I wouldn't trust any website on the global Internet to guarentee my computer's security. The webmaster could be doing anything without your knowledge; you have no way of guarenteeing that it is a legitimate or reliable service, the same way you have no way of knowing your League of Legends files aren't infected unless you download from the official website (and even then there is a minute chance that their security was compromised and someone placed a virus there instead). | |

| Oct 22, 2015 at 20:37 | comment | added | Dpeif | Some anti virus software has a publisher registry and will flag executable files downloaded from a source that isn't in their registry. Not necessarily your problem, but something to watch out for. | |
| Oct 22, 2015 at 19:18 | comment | added | Lucas Leblanc | I second Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. It's very good software and free to boot, I've recovered several machines using it. | |
| Oct 22, 2015 at 15:22 | comment | added | Ethan Bierlein | @TrapHappy Wikipedia is saying fine things about it. I'd still use a standalone antivirus program, like Norton, or the likes. | |
| Oct 22, 2015 at 14:52 | comment | added | TrapHappy | Maybe not, but I would still trust an antivirus program better than a website, maybe it's just me | |
| Oct 22, 2015 at 14:39 | comment | added | TrapHappy | I don't normally use websites to search for viruses, as they can be untrustworthy, I recommend downloading a program like Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to search for viruses/.PUPs | |

Spelling corrections on game title, and "detected". Changed wording slightly.
