Downloading files from rapidshare with a premium account

This one took time to figure out, and joining bits and peaces of info I found throughout the Internet. Now it seems strait forward.

  • Install d4x with synaptic.


  • In Flashgot options, choose d4x (nt) as your downloader

  • In firefox put this in the url bar: about:config

  • Set flashgot.rsPremium to true

Log on to your premium account in rapidshare, so firefox can pass on the rapidshare cookie to d4x


How it works

Highlight the urls you wish to download as you browse with firefox. Right click, FlashGot download selection, and thats all

If you don't want to have that d4x box popping out each time you send something to d4x, set (in about:config) flashgot.Downloader_4_X.quiet to true

(I tried this in my laptop's Ubuntu Gutsy, and it didn't work)
