These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Confidence
The site is a subdomain of a free hosting provider that has a documented history of hosting malicious content. Our research found that the parent domain is linked to hundreds of credential leaks and numerous phishing subdomains. While the specific 'onyxx' page appears to be a simple informational site for a Sudoku solver, the lack of business registration and the high-risk environment make it untrustworthy. The page also requires JavaScript to display any content, which is a common trait for modern web apps but can also hide intent from simple crawlers. Because the hosting environment is so frequently abused, we cannot verify the safety of the software downloads offered here.

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page serves as a landing site for 'Onyx - The House of Sudoku,' a Windows-based puzzle generator created by an individual developer. It features a basic HTML layout with a static image of the software interface and technical descriptions of the puzzle-generation logic.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a free subdomain service (totalh.net) which is part of the InfinityFree/Byet network. It uses a ZeroSSL certificate and is hosted on an IP address with no current abuse reports, though the parent domain has a significant history of security issues.

Domain History

The parent domain has been active for over 14 years, but this specific subdomain lacks a global traffic rank. There is no business registration or official contact information associated with the site, which is typical for personal hobbyist projects from the Windows 7/10 era.

Web Reputation

Independent security sources and blacklist feeds frequently flag the parent domain due to its association with phishing campaigns, including fake Instagram and gaming login pages. While this specific subdomain hasn't been flagged, it resides in a high-risk neighborhood.
