[QUOTE="struppigel, post: 964368, member: 86910"] These are very good suggestions here. These automatic sandbox systems like any.run and hybrid-analysis are only useful if you can interpret them, though. I wouldn't take their overall results for granted. They are more to be understood as hints that a file might be interesting to be analysed, e.g., by a malware analyst. VirusTotal is a bit easier. Check the detection rate as well as the first submission date in the Details tab on VirusTotal. The first submission date cannot be faked. Make sure it is a few weeks old. If it isn't, wait until it is. If you have a few detections on the file, you can send it to AV vendors so they may check it. You can also post the VirusTotal link here for us to check it. [/QUOTE]
