Abstract
Disclosed are systems, methods and computer program products for detecting and preventing spread of malware in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. The system includes a P2P server receiving from a peer client computer a request for a metadata object and determining if the requested metadata object is associated with one of a verified clean data object, a verified malicious data, or an unverified data object. If the requested metadata object is associated with a verified clean data object, transmitting the requested metadata object to the peer client computer. If the requested metadata object is associated with an unverified data object, determining if the peer client computer has an antivirus software for testing the unverified data object for malware. If the peer client computer has an antivirus software, transmitting to the peer client computer the requested metadata object, otherwise denying client' request.
