It isn't.

It just uses public information from Steam to check if a user has any community server or VAC bans.

The only thing I could find was a website written mostly in Chinese that repeatedly says it has "no viruses" which is like if the waiter at a restaurant repeatedly assured you unprompted that there were no rats piloting the chef around the kitchen Ratatouille style.

I can see that you have 100 hours in Spacewar so I guess it's the Steamtools that is not good you are "testing"
Be prepared to eventually get your account hijacked.

There are more than one "Steamtools" and one of them is indeed against the SSA/TOS to use.

Other than that, it's a really good way to get infected with malware.

That's all I'm going to say.

THIS THREAD IS BAIT TO GET YOU TO DOWNLOAD AND LOGIN TO A PHISHING PROGRAM. I guarantee it's either got a fake login page that will send your info to a textfile after you type and login OR it's running some kind of trojan or malware that will log your keystrokes.

Don't install this program.

they proved that the steamtools dll can perform some transfers, like some unwanted downloads, but it hasnt yet been proven that it contains an actual virus.

If it looks like a virus and acts like a virus, I'd rather not have it on my computer even if it's not "actually" a virus.

In general, be very cautious before running anything on your computer that doesn't come from a trusted package manager, app store, or a well known software publisher's website. Once something is running on your computer, it can do anything that you can do on your computer on your behalf. That includes things like copying all your login sessions to someone else's computer.
