Shortened links are everywhere, but you never really know where they might take you. If you aren't sure whether to open one, URL Uncover can keep you safe.
There are tons of sites that will expand a shortened link to tell you where it points, but URL Uncover takes things a few steps further. In addition to seeing the full URL, you'll get a page title, keywords, screenshot, and even a threat indicator powered by McAfee Site Advisor. And if the site raises red flags on SpamCop, URL Uncover will alert you to that too.
While URL Uncover offers more features than any other URL expander I've seen, you will have to remember to use it since it doesn't have a browser extension. As long as you're diligent though, URL Uncover can keep you safe.
