Rapidshare is #1 file sharing service on the web today. But it isn’t free. You will have to pay subscription charges to get a Premium Account. Most of us don’t like to wasting money to buy a premium account. So here are some simple tricks to fool Rapidshare
JavaScript Method:
- Goto the page you want to download
hit the FREE button - Include the following in your address bar: javascript:alert(c=0)
- Click OK to the pop-up box and enter the captcha code
- Download Your File
Request new IP address from ISP (for dynamic IP address Internet users only)
- Click Start -> Run
- Type cmd in the Open box, then click OK.
- At the command prompt, run the following commands one by one:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
exit - Try to download from RapidShare again.
Using Bookmarklet in IE:
- Open IE
- Right Click On This Link
- Select Add to Favorites
- Select Yes to the warning that the bookmark may be unsafe.
- Name it “RapidShare No Wait”
- Click on the Links folder (if you want to display it in your IE toolbar)
- Click OK, (You may need to close and reopen IE to see it )
- Goto rapidshare and click the bookmarklet when you are forced to wait
