Scan links that you get in e-mails to Check the Web Site for Viruses - www.avg.com.au/resources/web-page-scanner

Here's a good Page, where you can scan links that you get in e-mails and check the Web Site for Mal-ware or Viruses. Before you click on the link and go there...  What you can do is... Right Click on the Link and Select "Copy Link Location". Then go to this site and paste the link in the little Link Scanner Area, http://www.avg.com.au/resources/web-page-scanner/. See the Screen Shots Below...

It may not work with the whole Link (URL) as is. It will open up another page with your results. If you get a page that looks like this...



You can just delete everything but the Base URL (the Main Web Site Address). Like this...



Then you will get a results Page, telling you if the Site has Known Problems, Mal-ware or  Viruses. This Page was Ok, so the Results Page looks like this...


 
Then you can feel a little more Safe, about Clicking on those E-Mail Links. It's a bit of a Pain, I know. But, far less of a PAIN. Than Getting a Virus or Mal-ware on your PC...
