==History and content==
The content of the page was a flashing picture of [[Jeff the Killer]], accompanied by an extremely loud, distorted noise. The image flashed repeatedly from regular to negative colors. The original page also contained text stating "This site will not harm your computer and doesn't contain any malware!", with a link to the creator's Facebook page. The site was visited 27.5 million times before closing. The website shortly turned into a redirect to [http://savetheinternet.info savetheinternet.info], but today, the link simply shows a connection error.

The [[Akk.li]] website had [[Anne.jpg]] featured as a file directory in April 2012, which contained a flashing picture of [[Jeff the Killer]], accompanied by an incredibly loud scream. Before the scream plays, the image quickly zooms in and flashed repeatedly from regular to negative colors. The original page also contained text stating "This site will not harm your computer and doesn't contains[sic] malware!", with a link to the creator's Facebook page. The [[screamer]] was first linked in December 2012, by ZONA DEL Terror. Above the link, the post states "''miren este vídeo horror fans esta increíble!!!''" (which roughly translates to "look at this video, horror fans - it's incredible!!!").

The website [[420yolo.com]] was first launched in March 2013, and it used the same screamer as [[Anne.jpg]]. It was posted on numerous [[subreddit]], all of them being disguised.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/domain/420yolo.com/ 420yolo] being posted in subreddits</ref>  In May, the [[website]] [[Findminecraft.com]] was launched and received a lot of popularity in 2015, because a popular [[wikipedia:Minecraft|''Minecraft'']] [[YouTuber]] at the time, [[wikipedia:DanTDM|DanTDM]], was tricked into entering the website while it was active.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcOFinI8GbA&t=14m DanTDM's video]</ref> Another mirror called [[Topkek.co]] existed for a while (possibly around 2014). This one did not have a [[malicious script]] like other known mirrors, but it did download malware on the computer. This version was spammed for a long time in [[wikipedia:/b/|/b/]] on [[4chan]], since "Topkek" is a 4chan meme<ref>[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/topkek Topkek] Definition</ref> and its purpose is to lure people in, making them think the website is associated with Topkek in ''some'' way.
In May, the website [[Findminecraft.com]] was created and received popularity in 2015 after popular <i>[[wikipedia:Minecraft|Minecraft]]</i> [[YouTube|YouTuber]] DanTDM showcased the site in a video.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcOFinI8GbA&t=14m DanTDM's video] being tricked from Findminecraft.com</ref>
 
===2014 - 2015===
Another mirror called "Topkek.co" existed for a while (around 2014). This version would download malware on the visitor's device, and was spammed for a long time in /b/ on [[4chan]], since "Topkek" is a 4chan meme<ref>[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/topkek Topkek] Definition</ref>, and its purpose was to lure people in, making them think the website is associated with Topkek in some way.
 
In late 2014, the domain [[Agor.io]] was registered. It was the most famous mirror since many people were prone to misspelling the second "a" and replacing it with an "o" instead. The website also included a malicious script that prevented the user from closing the site by displaying the alert message "U SCARED BRO LOL". The website significantly grew popular on Reddit. This post in particular was supposedly written by a parent whose child had an epileptic seizure trying to play Agar.io but misspelled it as Agor.io instead. The mother was attempting to file a lawsuit against the owner of the website, revealed to be Preston Kellenberger, living in Sardinia, Ohio.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20190821192018/https://screamer.fandom.com/wiki/Thread:6068</ref> Agor.io now redirects to a 404 error page.

Similar to Akk.li, ''Agor.io'' now redirects to a 404 page.
