The ThreatExpert Submission Applet is a stand-alone tool that provides you with an quick easy way to submit your samples to ThreatExpert (a free multi-vendor virus scanner).
The ThreatExpert system produces reports with the level of technical detail that
matches or exceeds antivirus industry standards such as those found in online virus
encyclopedias.
It only takes 2-3 minutes for an automation server to process a single threat,
making it possible to generate up to 1,000 highly detailed threat descriptions per
server, per day. Built on a distributed architecture the service can scale to a
virtually unlimited amount of threat analysis servers, thereby allowing unlimited
automated processing of threat samples.
The submission applet produces reports identical to the alternative online submission but instead of requiring you to upload the sample through a browser, you can upload samples using a Windows application.
