Malware Log Analysis

About this website

This website is a convenient way to share FRST.txt, Addition.txt and similar logs with malware removal helpers that occur during malware removal. It makes sure that other people cannot see your logs.

Farbar Recovery Scan Tool does not expose private information except for the username and computer name. However, for some people this is already more than they are willing to expose.

Sites like pastebin.com sometimes refuse to let you upload logs from these tools because depending on the infection they may contain malware commands that these websites deem suspicious.

How it works

  • You upload your log on the upload page, either by pasting it or by choosing the file.
  • After the upload you get an ID made of two words. Post that ID in your forum topic so your helper can find the log.
  • Only the volunteer helpers who have an account on this website can open uploaded logs. Logs are never public.
  • Your helper may send you a fixlist via a link. Only run a fixlist that was made for your computer.

How long do you keep the logs?

Logs get deleted automatically after 30 days. The privacy policy has the details on what is stored and for how long.
