Rapidshare Problems.

  Hi,
  
  I am trying to download some files from rapidshare.com.
  
  But it is often written that my IP is already downloading, which is not true.
  
  And then after that, even if I manage to get to start download, very often there will be long waiting time first.
  
  I am very frustrated, please tell me what I can do to download from rapidshare.com smoothly.
  
  I am using Starhub.
  
  I have tried utility programs, connect through anonymous proxies, restart my modem and router, all these I tried.
  
  Or......anyone got an extra premium account to share?
  
  Thank you very much,
  
  Meat Pao.

  because of ip address problem,
  
  

  Your system complaints about that I am already downloading files or that I have already downloaded too much. But I did not download anything! Whats wrong there?
  
  Our system checks your IP-address in order to count the downloads. If you are getting this message and you really did not download anything, then you are using a proxy-server, which is used by other people as well. Even if you have no proxy-server set up in your configuration, there are many providers who force a transparent proxy-servers between you and the net. If you do not believe us, go to other pages telling you your IP-address (for example http://www.myipaddress.com.) But what can you do? You have to disable this proxy-server. If you are not able to disable the proxy-server, the only solution IS a Premium-account. Premium-users are recognized by cookies, not by IP-address. Unfortunately we cannot disable our IP-check, else people would download so much that we would have to close down this service completely. I hope you understand our situation in this matter.

  Ya I know, it's very irritating.
  
  I have to use anonymous proxies to change my IP address, but even then, it's still not working very well, because all those anonymous proxy servers are also used by many other people, and often times rapidshare.com will say that the IP address is already downloading or have to wait a certain time again.
  
  I only succeed after many times trying, trying to find an available proxy, and have to be real quick, before it is taken up.
  
  Now after many frustrations with this lousy method, I am trying another way.....
  
  Running a PHP script.....called.....Rapidkill.
  
  But have to load it on a webserver.
  
  After I tried to load it and failed on 2 free webservers, now I really have to get personal. I am installing myself Apache+PhP+MySQL package. Then I will make my own webserver to load the Rapidkill script.
  
  Ok I am downloading the package now. Wish me luck.
  
  Sian.

  Sian.
  
  I setup Apache fine, PhP fine, everything works, my webserver running.
  
  But still cannot download from rapidshare.com when I run the script.
  
  I tried RapidKill script, RapidGet script, and several other mods on the internet.
  
  Sian.
  
  Now I will have to use my final kung-fu stand, this time it is personal.
  
  I will run CGI-Proxy, CGI 2.1.beta15.
  
  It is supposed to enable my local webserver to run a proxy.
  
  Haiz, wish me luck. I am downloading the package now. CGI Proxy 2.1.beta15 and Perl 5.8.8.

  LOL... your own computer IP address is 127.0.0.1, you expect the server to route to you?????
