HOW-TO: Use rapidshare
This tutorial made by my friend ATORUS at
SAMARKANDSWORLD
Introduction:
Rapidshare is a free hosting site where people can upload files to share with others.
When you upload a file, you are given a URL which is the only way to find the file,
though there are a few ways to search the rapidshare libraries (see below).
Searching:
www.rapidshared.org
www.rapidfox.net
www.shareminer.com (searches rapidshare, megaupload, sendspace, etc.)
www.rapidshareddl.com
www.filesbot.com/
Uploading:
* Rename the file(s) you want to share, to avoid any keyword filtering that the
host may be doing. Another option is to put your files in a zip file and give that
a less obvious name. *
- Go to rapidshare.com.
- Click on 'Browse' and find the file you want to share.
- Click on 'Upload'.
- Leave your upload to complete, it may take a while.
- When complete, it notifies you and displays an advertisement.
- Click on the "Just give me the download link", down the bottom.
- Carefully copy/paste the download URL (next to the green text).
- You can now share the URL, so other people can d/l your movie(s).
Downloading:
* Rapidshare tries to restrict you to something like one d/l an hour. You can
try to get around this by resetting your router (if possible), or using proxies
(check the guide linked at the bottom of this topic).
Otherwise, just plan your downloads accordingly. *
- Copy/paste the URL into your addressbar.
- Select FREE from the table of info.
- You can now view the file size (1000KB = 1MB).
- Wait for the timer to count down (big file = longer wait).
- Enter the auto-generated code into the box & press ENTER.
- Do this quickly, as the code becomes invalid <1min.
- Save prompt should now appear.
- Download.
