This article contains a list of every respectable Windows anti-malware vendor, with a signature based product, that I am aware of. Thus this list, in addition to showing you how to easily submit malware or false positives to all of them, also serves as a reference for anti-malware products which are confirmed to be legitimate. That said, I make no statement as to whether any particular anti-malware vendor is good at detecting malware. Some of the vendors in this list are very good and others are nearly worthless. This is not the place to discuss this. By submitting malware to all of them you can help protect nearly all internet users, regardless of which product they choose to use for protection.
Also, it would really help if you could rate this article. In addition, for those of you who are knowledgeable about anti-malware vendors, if you do find something wrong, whether it be a missing vendor, incorrect information, missing information, etc..., please read the section about How You Can Help. I really need everyone's help in order to improve and maintain this article.

1. How To Easily Prepare To Submit The Samples
A) Make Sure Email Client Is Set Up Properly
B) Put Samples In Compressed Files
2. Easily Submit Malware To All Vendors
1. How To Easily Prepare To Submit The Samples
To follow the advice in this article you will need to have an email client, such as Thunderbird or Hotmail/Live/Outlook, set up and configured. If you have not already set this up, please do so now. For instructions on how to set up Outlook please see this page and for instructions on how to set up Thunderbird please see this page.
You will also have to be using an email services which has been confirmed to work for this process. The only one which I am currently aware of is AOL.
By the way, I have confirmed that Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, GMX, FastMail, and Shortmail do not work.
In terms of the ones which do work, please note that sometimes they will force you to answer a puzzle, to prove that you're human, or even to change your password. This is because it seems like what you're doing constitutes unusual account activity. This is not really a problem. I'm just letting you know ahead of time so you're not surprised.
If you're planning on submitting a suspicious file, or multiple files, for analysis, the easiest way to do this is to install a program called 7-Zip. It can be downloaded from this page. Once it's installed right click on the sample you would like to submit and select "7-Zip". If you are submitting multiple samples then highlight then all and then right click on them. Then choose "7-Zip". Submitting multiple samples at once can save you a lot of time if you have a lot of samples to submit. However, I would suggest that you do not submit more than 5 at a time as some vendors will begin to reject these.
After selecting "7-Zip", in the list that appears, select the option to "Add to archive...". It will open up a window as shown in the picture to the right. Then, in the options for "Archive format" make sure it is set to zip. Then enter in 'infected' as the password. Do not include the quotes. Then select ok.
After this is done, in order to submit it to many of the remaining vendors, once again follow exactly the same steps only this time change the "Archive format" to 7z. Then put in the same password and select OK. Now you should have the samples by themselves, a password protected zip file, and a password protected 7z file.
2. Easily Submit Malware To All Vendors
One of the main purposes of this article is to make it as easy as possible for anyone who comes across malware to submit it to all security vendors in as few steps as possible. Also, don't worry about duplicate submissions. This has been taken care of for this list.
You can submit the password protected zip file by clicking on this link. (Attach zip file after email client opens and then click send)-Webmail users should right click on it and choose to save the email addresses. Then paste them in the contact line of your email.
You can submit the password protected 7z file by clicking on this link. (Attach 7z file after email client opens and then click send)-Webmail users should right click on it and choose to save the email addresses. Then paste them in the contact line of your email.
If the email is not delivered correctly please see my comments in section A1 to make sure that you are not using one of the email services which do not work with this list.
At this point you've submitted the sample to all vendors below marked with a 
. This does include most of them. Also, if a message failed to be delivered to one or more of the vendors, which does happen sometimes, you can manually submit it to them below if you like. Also, if you wish, you can submit the sample to the rest of the vendors who have submission information. Each of these vendors is marked with a 
. However, this will be much more time consuming as you will have to manually submit the sample to each vendor individually. Note that for online forms, unless instructed otherwise, you should upload the file directly and not in a compressed file.
3. Criteria Used For The List
My only criteria for adding vendors to this list are that they have to have their own website, which must provide contact information. Also, the vendor must have a signature based anti-malware product, not have a bad reputation, and their main site cannot be rated orange or red by Web Of Trust - which is a criterion imposed by techsupportalert and is non-negotiable.
If, in the list, I say that I have confirmed something, that means that I have either been provided that information directly from the vendor or from some other official source with connections to the vendor. I've already run across some occasions where, for example, the website indicates there is not a particular submission option, but their support tells me that there is. Thus, you can rest assured that if I say that something is confirmed to not exist, that information is trustworthy. The only way it can be incorrect is if the vendor now provides a particular submission option which they previously did not.
4. List Of All Vendors
Unless otherwise noted, when submitting a sample via an online form you should upload the file directly and not in a compressed file. Also, unless otherwise noted, submissions by email should be put in a password protected zip file. Just click on the link for the vendor you wish to submit it to and it will automatically fill the necessary details into your default email client. Then all you need to do is attach the zip file and click send. For any cases where the vendors require different steps they are clearly noted.
The symbol denotes vendors who are included in the mailing lists in the previous section. You've already submitted the samples to them.
The symbol denotes vendors who do not have an email address for submission but do have some alternate options for submitting samples.
The symbol 
denotes vendors who use the signatures of other vendors. Thus you don't need to submit samples to them directly.
If a vendor is unmarked this indicates that I currently have no information about how to submit malware to them.
An "*" means that there is incomplete information. If you have any information your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
To jump to the relevant section of the list please click on the letter that the vendor you're interested in begins with. The vendors are arranged alphabetically.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Z
Please note that some products are known by multiple names. Thus, if you are having trouble finding a particular vendor, or product, it will likely be very helpful to search for them using ctrl-f.

5. How You Can Help
If you find that there is a vendor which I have left out of the list please leave a comment about this so I can investigate. Also, if you find that any of the information I provide is incorrect please let me know immediately so that I can fix this. This includes circumstances in which I say I have confirmed that an option does not exist (when it now does), information that does not work as promised, vendors that no longer support their product, etc... I will personally look into all information provided before adding it to the article. Starred products are those that I currently realize are in need of information. I could really use your help with those vendors as well.
That said, because of the strict requirements I have imposed for stating that I have confirmed that something does not exist, I will not be able to say that I have confirmed that submission options do not exist just because someone states it in the comments. I hope you understand that I am not insulting anyone but just being very cautious before adding information to the article. However, things like submission links or email addresses I can investigate myself and add. I only need an official response for confirming that something does not currently exist.
I really do need your help to maintain this article as this is way too much information for me to investigate on my own. Keeping this list up to date would require an astronomical amount of work, and I'm already very busy with many other projects. I thank you for whatever time you can contribute to make this best malware submission article on the internet.
Please help by rating this article. Also, if you believe this article deserves anything less than 5 stars, please leave a comment below explaining how you think it can be improved or where you find fault. This article is written by me but fueled by the community. Thus your opinions and advice are not only much appreciated, but actually necessary in order for this article to grow and improve.

Online subission for MicroWorld-eScan here:

Forget my above comment.
I was not aware that "MicroWorld-escan" is already listed under "eScan"
bkav@bkav.com.vn takes zip files too, so add it to your jumbo mailto link.
Here are email addresses you don't have.
virus@ByteHero.com
huangruimin@kingsoft.com
Submission URLs you don't have:
[Link removed as per site rules](The WOT rating is due to questionable company practices. They're one of the vendors in VirusTotal though, so I think they're worth listing here)

@Chiron: Typo? I see Avert Labs but not McAfee in your combined email list in #2. I imagine maintaining this list for a year is even more difficult than building it initially, especially since "with so many [email contacts] in the list it is difficult to tell which are temporary issues and which are permanent."
Batch file @HunterHunted described is handy. Perhaps someone will extend it to opening AOL Mail and adding the attachment. (Can't wait for the Windows 19 "Think it: Do it" interface.)
Very, very useful. Some email addresses seem to be down for me:
submit@trojanhunter.com
k7viruslab@labs.k7computing.com
trojans@moosoft.com
virus@esafe.com
To further streamline stuff, I have a bat file with the following content in my directory with malware and just drag new samples onto it.
@echo off
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -pinfected -t7z "%1.7z" "%1"
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -pinfected -tzip "%1.zip" "%1"
Modify accordingly for wherever you installed 7zip.
still having issues with password protected zip file:

I think this would make no difference. But I did not try it.

I suggest an additional link to submit false-positive samples for McAfee-GW-Edition:
virus_research_gateway@avertlabs.com
The correct procedure to submit is explained here:
https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB62662&actp=null&...
Background-story: in the past 4 weeks I submitted 3 times the same sample file to virus_research@mcafee.com and each time I got the reply:
"Automated analysis was not able to determine that this file is malware. This file is
being sent for further processing and the DAT files will potentially be updated if
detection of this sample is warranted"
Finally I registered with the McAfee-community and explained my case.
Today I submitted my sample again to the new submission adress.
Hopefully they will now handle this case.
My false positive sample was detected when I uploaded it to virustotal.
I then submitted it 3 times to virus_research@mcafee.com (leaving at least 7 days interval). My file was never whitelisted there.
The new email adress virus_research_gateway@avertlabs.com works better for samples that are flagged as McAfee-GW-Edition.
If you are interested I can provide the report-links from virustotal.
Just to clarify: both email adresses are valid.
Only if a false positiv is marked as "McAfee-GW-Edition" I would recommend the new adress. For other McAfee-findings I would still use the old adress.
