'''Google Hammer''' was a [[shock site]] and malicious variant of [[Meatspin]] created in 2012.


Upon opening, the [[Flash]] content for [[Meatspin]] and its accompanying music begin autoplaying continuously in an endless loop. Simultaneously, a barrage of alert pop-ups appears on the screen, trapping the user and preventing them from closing the window. Because these sudden dialogue boxes are designed to display the specific song lyrics, they are populated with the words from the 1985 pop song ''[[wikipedia:You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)|You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)]]'', which are presented as follows:
*''"Awww, don't leave yet! The fun has just begun!"''
*''"Sing along with me!"''
*''"You spin me right round, baby"''
*''"right round like a record, baby"''
*''"ONE MORE TIME"''
*''"THAT NEVER HURT DID IT"''
Another browser payload overloads [[wikipedia:Shockwave Flash|Shockwave Flash]] using a custom SWFObject script. This causes non-Internet Explorer browsers to crash, while [[wikipedia:Internet Explorer|Internet Explorer]] triggers dialog boxes, alters the window title upon exit, and shrinks the browser window to a quarter of its size in one of the four screen corners.
The title page for Google Hammer jokingly states that "''Marketing Information So Good It'll Spin Your Head Right Round.''".
A meta description accompanying the fake tagline also read:
"''Your resource for diving headfirst into internet marketing the right way. Once you experience Google Hammer, you'll wonder how you ever survived without it.''"

[[File:Google hammah.PNG|thumb|200px|The annoying lyric pop-ups found on Google Hammer's predecessor Infoslash.net]]
The source code for ''Google Hammer'' was largely taken from ''Infoslash.net'', which was a typosquatting site designed to mimic [[wikipedia:Slashdot|Slashdot]] through the clever wordplay of "Info Slash (dot) net."
Infoslash was actually much more popular than ''Google Hammer'', and frequent mentions of it can be found in old discussion forums as well as on [[Reddit]] and [[wikipedia:Facebook|Facebook]] at present times. On March 10, 2009, a description was contained within a [[wikipedia:Steam|Steam]] group named "Team Infoslash" where the [[website]] was listed as their official homepage.<ref>steamcommunity.com/groups/teaminfoslash</ref> The same script featured on ''Infoslash.net'' is found on a Brazilian mirror site, ''top5.lupee.com.br:80/top.htm'', where the song lyrics are replaced with dialog box labels in Portuguese.
==Makemoniesonline.com==
Previously, a variation of ''Infoslash'' was formed by a [[Meatspin]] mirror called Makemoniesonline, though it was less malicious. Fears were held by some users that harmful applications could be downloaded onto their devices by the [[website]], but this claim was debunked.
Explicit lyrics referencing [[wikipedia:Rick Astley|Rick Astley]]'s "[[wikipedia:Never Gonna Give You Up|Never Gonna Give You Up]]" are featured on the [[website]], and an alert box reading "You've been Dick Rolled" would suddenly appear while visitors browsed. As noted by [[wikipedia:Urban Dictionary|Urban Dictionary]] user Spyker44, this screen is displayed when the site is closed right after the [[animated]] image pops up,<ref>googlehammer.urbanup.com/4190950</ref> and additional phrases like "ONE MORE TIME" and "THAT NEVER HURT DID IT" were syntaxes left unchanged within Google Hammer's source code. The dialogue from the alter boxes may have been possibly obtained from a copypasta. Most notably, the chorus from the original song was changed to:
*"''NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU ANAL''"
*"''NEVER GONNA LET YOU SPIN ME''"
*"''NEVER GONNA RUN AROUND AND PEE ON YOU''"
*"''NEVER GONNA MAKE YOU MOAN''"
*"''NEVER GONNA SAY COMO YA!''"
*"''NEVER GONNA FUCK YOUR BUM AND HURT YOU''"
Because the title page used to be displayed as "April Fools Bitches" it is suggested that the [[website]] came out as early as April 1st, 2008, while Rick Astley's song suddenly spiked in popularity on that same day because [[YouTube]] used the meme for its April Fools' Day event and users of several websites voted for "Never Gonna Give You Up" in a poll for the [[wikipedia:New York Mets|New York Mets]]' rally song.
Despite Google Hammer originating there, Makemoniesonline was originally derived and technically drawn from [[Sourmath]] (most notably [[Nobrain.dk]]), as evidenced by its exact content replacement, browser windows, and pop-ups.
