If you are looking for a nice set of system monitoring gadgets then perhaps you might want to check out the �addgadget� website. The �All CPU meter�, �Network Meter� and �Drives Meter� complement each other and give you a great deal of information on what your system is doing. If your computer is slow in response, simply check the CPU, Network and Drives monitor to see what the computer is currently doing. The CPU meter can also show a logo of your processor.
The VT Firefox Plugin and VT Uploader can help you scan any file (online) for possible infections. The scan is performed by dozens of antimalware scanners simultaneously.
The VT Uploader adds a right-click functionality into your Windows shell. By right-clicking on any file and selecting �send-to VirusTotal Uploader�, you can send the file to the VT server for analysis. It will first create a �hash� code of the file to check with it�s online database of scanned files to see if someone else has already scanned the exact same file, so that it does not need to re-upload the same file again. Thus you can get the result faster rather than wait for the upload and analysis to complete. If the file was not seen before, then it will be uploaded and analyzed.
The VT Firefox plugin allows you to scan any web page for malicious code and scan any downloadable file before you download it. By clicking a file to download you select �Scan with VirusTotal� instead of �save� or �run�.
