apidshare is the most popular place for file download and upload in the internet. Be it music or movies, softwares or e-books you can download almost anything and every thing from terabytes of data present in Rapidshare database. But the absolute freedom comes with a cost. If you are not a premium user (paid user) for Rapidshare then you are obliged to go through some restrictions. The most annoying of them is, Rapidshare traces the users IP address to limit each user to a certain amount of downloading per day. And even if it grants you the access, you need to wait for 1 minute or so before the download window comes after you click the link.
So to take you out of all such miseries, lemme post some probable hacks for you.
Hack 1- Use JavaScript to Reduce Waiting Time
- Click the rapidshare link you want to download from.
- Select FREE button
- In the address bar put the following javascript:alert(c=0) or javascript:var%20c=0
- Click OK
- Click OK to the pop-up box
- Enter the captcha
- Download Your File
Hack 2- Request a new IP address from your ISP server
Rapidshare keeps a record of your IP address when you try to download a file. Now for the next files it restricts you with time limit. So, if you use DHCP, you better obtain a new IP and then you won't face a problem of waiting.
1. Click Start, Go to Run 3. Type cmd and click OK 4. When the command prompt opens type the following. ENTER after each new line. ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew exit
5. Erase your cookies in whatever browser you are using. 6. Try the rapidshare download again. And you will succeed.
[Note: Though if you have a static IP this method won't assign you a new IP. And its for Windows users only. You can also create a batch file to execute these commands under single batch file]
Hack 3- Use a proxy with SwitchProxy and Firefox
Hack 4- RapidShare No Wait

Click on the Links folder (if you want to display it in your IE toolbar) 7. Click OK 8. You may need to close and reopen IE to see it 9. Goto rapidshare and click the bookmarklet when you are forced to wait
