Selection Shield: Prevent Unwanted Interactions While Selecting Text

Selection Shield is a free Chrome extension developed by Aquib Master. It falls under the category of Browsers and belongs to the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This extension is designed to stop websites from triggering popups and other unwanted interactions when you select text.

For those who enjoy selecting text while reading, Selection Shield provides a shield against websites that launch pop-ups or activate certain functionalities when text is selected. By default, the extension prevents websites from obtaining selection information. However, if you intentionally want to trigger an interaction, you can simply select text while holding down the command or ctrl key.

Selection Shield offers a simple and effective solution to avoid interruptions caused by pop-ups and unwanted actions while selecting text on websites. With this extension, you can have a smoother and more focused browsing experience without any unnecessary distractions.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

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.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
