Not only normal visitors, also the webmasters need to know whether their site is hacked or not. Most of the hackers, inject malware into these sites. So, a web master need to be alerted of these attacks to save his visitors and himself!

URLVoid is a new site which will solve our problem. URLVoid was started on 21st May 2010 making it possible for us to scan a web site using multiple engines. There are lots of engines which can scan a web site and report whether its clean or not. URLVoid will combine the power of these top scan engines to give us an almost perfect report. Some of the popular engines that they use are,  Google Diagnostic, McAfee SiteAdvisor, Norton SafeWeb and MyWOT. When I scanned TechHamlet.com, it used 19 engines to make sure that this site is clean.
