Rick Roll Detector: A Tiny Extension to Protect You from Rick Rolling

Rick Roll Detector is a Chrome extension developed by juju.sel.mail. It falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This free extension serves as a protective shield against the notorious internet prank known as Rick Rolling.

The main purpose of Rick Roll Detector is to warn users if a webpage contains links pointing to Rick Astley's iconic song "Never Gonna Give You Up" video. Once installed, the extension actively checks the page for any such links. When a potential Rick Roll attempt is detected, the extension adds a prefix to the link text, effectively alerting the user to the presence of a potential prank.

With its simple and unobtrusive functionality, Rick Roll Detector ensures that users can browse the web with greater peace of mind, avoiding unexpected surprises and maintaining control over their online experiences.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
