RollTube – The Rick Roll Firefox Addon
.
RollTube is a Rick Roll Firefox Extension that switches every YouTube video with the infamous Rick Roll video. The experience has been described as “like the whole internet ganging up and rick rolling you at the same time”.
We say: great to install across all the machines in your office / lab / classroom. RollTube is cross platform and needs no special admin rights to install!
The Video: includes instructions and RollTube snuff action!
RollTube – the rick roll firefox extension from fffffat labs on Vimeo.
Install:
UPDATED – You Tube seems to be on to us – they blocked the video. RollTube 0040 uses a different rick roll video. The War is on!
Info:
RollTube is the 2nd in our FFFFFAT series of evil firefox extensions (totally worksafe!) and follows hot on the heels of the original bad boy, the Firefox Tourettes Extension. FFFFFAT believes in supplying both sides in the all out Rick Astley war – so to protect ya neck check out the “Never be Rick Rolled again” Rick Roll Adblock Extension.
Open Source:
In typical fffffat fffffashion get and improve the source here
Auto play source here. Use the awesome User Script Compiler to turn the code into an extension.
Enjoy!

People should post reaction vids!
theo added these pithy words on Mar 13 08 at 7:12 amYeah Jamie is working on a auto installer that sits on a usb stick. So you can just plug it in and it installs our whole suite of evil firefox addons. For mac it is quite easy you just pop the unzipped xpi folder in Firefox/Contents/MacOS/Extensions . No need to confirm installation or anything.

ttij added these pithy words on Mar 14 08 at 12:43 pmso how do you uninstall the stealth extensions without hosing your profile?
dude added these pithy words on Mar 17 08 at 4:37 pmYeah, this is cool ‘n’ all, but…ummm…HOW THE FU*K DO I REMOVE IT? *Caps Lock Off* I’ve disabled and uninstalled the addon but I keep getting rickrolled. I’m guessing it’s the stealth version that’s screwing with me… Damn you.
I bet you’re laughing your ass off by this, but plx help me? kthxbye
theo added these pithy words on Mar 19 08 at 10:23 amits the one called firefoxautoupdater just uninstall it and restart firefox.
john d'arc added these pithy words on Mar 26 08 at 1:13 amhey, uh…the extension seems to be dead. or at least the rick roll video seems to no longer be on youtube, so i get that black “video removed” thingie.
fix it?
john d'arc added these pithy words on Mar 26 08 at 1:51 amwhy does the extension not work for me? i keep getting the “video is unavailable” screen, but the video works!
theo added these pithy words on Mar 26 08 at 7:53 amYeah – youtube somehow blocked it! Crazy – they blocked me from using a lot of rick roll videos – but they missed one. Updated plugin that fixes the problem linked above in the install section.

Chris added these pithy words on Apr 18 08 at 3:20 pmThey removed the video again.
d. bene tleilax added these pithy words on May 08 08 at 8:57 pmiz broke again =(
what would be awesome is if this extension had an input option, where u could just put the address of the video in yrself and use this for ANY video. then instantly change it when it goes down.
is that possible???
