Link Revealer - Improve Your Security

Link Revealer is a Firefox add-on designed to improve your online security by displaying the true URL for all links. It provides colored indicators to differentiate between links from the same domain, third-party links, and links with misleading text-content. The add-on also allows you to scan links for threats using the virustotal JavaScript API. Activate the API in the options page and conveniently scan up to 4 links per minute. With Link Revealer, you can enhance your security while browsing the web.

User reviews

The app works well and it does as advertised. However i wish that the extension overwrite the stock mozilla link revealer, it would be more aesthetically pleasing and it would reduce screen waste for small monitor
