How to exit a RickRoll in 2 steps!

Hey yall, i dont know if everyone knows this already, or if this is in the wrong section (if it is then please move it), but i thought i'd tell you all about this ;)

Step 1: Wait until the window stops moving (Eventually it will, doesnt take too long)

step 2: Click the close tab button and a window will pop up, hold down the Enter button for a while and the window will run out of messages, and that will make the RickRoll close down. Then you're safe to go!

Note: This only works if you have a new tab open and you go to a rickroll site, for example; You have 1 runescape tab and one random tab open, and you go to a RickRoll site on the random tab, do the 2 steps and you will have your runescape tab left but not the random tab.

Note2: I have only tried this with Firefox 3, so i dont really know if it works for example IE. And about the waiting thing, you dont need to wait, only if you dont feel like catching the close tab button :p Or if you want to close the whole explorer, then the red button.

If you feel like trying this out, then right click this link: www.raygoldmodels.com And press "Open link in New tab", then follow step 1 and 2. :)

Thanks LordGregGreg for this link: http://noscript.net/ , i suggest checking it out if you want to surf safe without any Rickrolls or anything.. :)


I hope this will help some of you xD And as i said, move it if it's in the wrong section, i just didnt know where to post this..

That will make close down your Firefox, and with that i mean all the tabs. With my method you can save your other tabs. :)

Meh. You don't even need to wait till it stops moving. Just try to catch the red button :p and then keydown(chr(13));

i wouldn't recommend hoilding enter… internet explorer like to set the cancel download button on enter too. Mozilla always has it set to cancel.
sorry if that doesnt make to much sense, i didnt know how to explain it.
you'll find out the hard way though

Dont know what a rick roll is…

Rick Roll is ANNOYING.

Thanks for this, though I normally just kill process if it happens.
