Mouse Pointer Double: Chrome Extension for Displaying a Copy of the Mouse Pointer

Mouse Pointer Double is a free Chrome extension developed by Richard Fridrich. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. The extension allows users to display a copy of the mouse pointer on a webpage, specifically designed for use with Chromecast.

With Mouse Pointer Double, users can add a fake mouse pointer that follows the real mouse pointer on the active page. This feature is particularly useful when using Chromecast, as it allows users to see the mouse movement on the projected page.

To activate Mouse Pointer Double, users can either click on the browser action icon or use the default keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+M (which can be edited at chrome://extensions/configureCommands).

This extension was created as a quick exercise, inspired by Frank Katzenberger's post on Google Plus. The source code for Mouse Pointer Double can be found on GitHub.

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.
