Rapidshare Tips and Tricks

Rapidshare is an excellent tool for sharing large files however it places some annoying restrictions for free users. Here are some tips and tricks that will get you around these annoyances.

Rapidshare traces the users IP address to limit each user to a certain amount of downloading per day. To get around this, you need to show the rapidshare server, a different IP address. You can do this one of multiple ways.

1. Short-Out the JavaScript:

1. Goto the page you want to download
2. Select FREE button
3. In the address bar put the following: javascript:alert(c=0)
4. Click OK
5. Click OK to the pop-up box
6. Enter the captcha
7. Download Your File

2. Request a new IP address from your ISP server.

Here’s how to do it in windows:
1. Click Start
2. Click run
3. In the run box type cmd.exe 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.

Frequently you will be assigned a new IP address when this happens. Sometime you will, sometimes you will not. If you are on a fixed IP address, this method will not work. To be honest, I do not know how to do this in linux/unix/etc. If this works for you, you may want to save the above commands into a batch file, and just run it when you need it.

3. Use a proxy with SwitchProxy and Firefox:

1. Download and install Firefox if you have not already
2. Download and install SwitchProxy
3. Google for free proxies
4. When you hit your download limit, clean your cookies and change your proxy

4. Use an anonymous service:

Running your system through the tor network should in theory work; however, it is difficult to use and setup. Plus, you allow others to run their evil deeds through your system as well by using this system. Anonymizer 2005 is inexpensive, easy to use, but not free. Other pay services would likely work as well.

5. You can use a bookmarklet to stop your wait times:

1. Open IE
2. Paste this into the address: “javascript:var%20c=0;”
3. Select Add to Favorites
4. Select Yes to the warning that the bookmark may be unsafe.
5. Name it “RapidShare No Wait”
6. 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

    How can you access and/or retrieve deleted files which are forbiddened to be shared because of complaints received in rapidshare.de?

  2. Do these rapidshare tips in any way interfere with a static address that is used for improving a bittorrent download speed please

  8. I am using a network that get disconnected quite often. So, many times in the middle of download process (from rapidshare), the line get disconnected and all my works and efforts go wasted. Since i have been charged per mb download, it put me in a great pressure. Could anyone kindly tell me is there a way to resume where the last download has stopped??? I will sincerely appreciate whoever advise me to sort out the problem…………..Looking forward to received help form tech. guys out there. SOS.

  9. Hi! None of these worked for me. I think my ISP blocks rapidshare. How do you get around “Your IP Address is already downloading the file” error with a fixed ip address??

    Thanks!

    My email is “drewco.australia@gmail.com” without “”

  11. Alot of bloggers not too happy with this new iPad.There was just 2 much hype about it and alot blogers got disapointed.You see, I actually see lots of the awesome potential uses of the device. Third-party soft for making tunes, games, newspapers and magazine and FFS books, tons of cool stuff, but they just didn’t really sell it very well (excluding the books). It smells kinda not finished

  12. Hi, I came across this blog post while searching for help with JavaScript. I’ve recently changed browsers from Google Chrome to Firefox 3.2. Now I seem to have a problem with loading JavaScript. Everytime I go on a site that requires Javascript, my computer freezes and I get a “runtime error javascript.JSException: Unknown name”. I can’t seem to find out how to fix it. Any help is very appreciated! Thanks

  13. Nothing worked.
    Someone asked that he want to change IP when a download in running and start another download. It is not possible. When rapidshare will say that your quota is finished, then change IP and download again. Changing IP when download is running, will stop the download.

  14. I do not know if it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else experiencing problems with your site.
    It appears as if some of the text in your content are running off the screen.

    Can someone else please comment and let me
    know if this is happening to them as well? This may
    be a problem with my web browser because I’ve had this happen
    previously. Thank you

  15. Hello! I’ve been following your weblog for a while now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from
    New Caney Tx! Just wanted to say keep up the fantastic
    job!
