Most search engines do not search for viruses but may give you a rating based on what is known or not known about the site you are thinking of navigating to. Most search engines will give you a recommendation on whether the site is 'safe', 'unsafe', or 'unknown'.

What are search engines and what do they do?

Search engines help you find information online. With literally trillions of pages available on the Internet, it is next to impossible to make use of these information without search engines. There are different search engines out there, but they basically do the same - they regularly visit the vast internet, they keep in a database the information they found and where they found them, and they allow users to type in the search box. You may want to check the link in my profile page for more information about search engines and how they work.


Do all Internet search engines have different rules?

There are only four major search engines in existence (Yahoo, Google, Ask and Msn) that have different "rules" or algorithms that are constantly updated in order to deliver relevant results to people who search through them. The other search engines simply use the major fours data or amalgamate it and rebrand it. The algorithms that search engines use in order to determine which pages it displays for a particular search are obviously highly secure as knowledge of these algorithms would mean that commercial sites could exploit the weaknesses and unfairly tip the balance in their favour. The gold standard if any search engine is to deliver relevant results for searches and they tend to focus on the age of a site, the amount of links to that site, the amount and quality of content on the site etc. Basically search engines do the same thing - they search the trillions of pages the Internet has, they record the information they found and where they found it, and allow users to do search queries. It is how they do this where they differ. The related web link points to a page that talks about internet search engines, check it out.

In Firefox, it would be under Tools --> Options. Try running MalwareBytes Anti-Malware and Spybot Search and Destroy to check for Malware.

How do you list a website in search engines?

Most major search engine have a webmaster section or an "add or submit url" link where you can submit your own url.Other search engines that do not have that feature will hace crawlers that will periodically check the internet for new sites. So you just need to be patient.Other websites have a free search engine submission service that you can use where they will submit your website to several search engine. The downside to doing that is that you will get a lot of Spam emails afterwards.Submitting your sites is an old myth. The internet is so connected today, that all the big search engines such as : Google.com , Yahoo.com, Avasearch.com , Bing.com , Clasearch.com, Ask.com, Aol.com ... all crwal each other and all of the other ones just feed from those.It is enough just to register a domain and its "Who is" will get already crawled
