Server side url scanner for malware, spyware , viruses and protect my visitors
- by Vangel
I have a forum/groups site that contains a lot of external URLs, sometimes direct download links. I want to protect my visitors from possible attacks from malware sites as they are mot likely to click on these links. CUrrently I implement DBL (spamhaus) but thats not enough. I want to run a background task to check the outgoing links first. I have looked at similar questions in StackOverflow (wrongly posted there) and here but fail to find a question same as mine or a good answer.
People have suggested ClamAV , I don't believe it can detect Web hosted malware sites and its has a lot of missed detection.
I have looked at google safe browsing service (

very complicated to implement or maintain plus midway I get lost :S )
I can go for commercial solution, anything to protect the visitors and my site brand. But I would like to hear the opinion of server admins and if anyone has implemented such a service.
My Server is basic CentOS LAMP stack.
thank you very much in advance.
