    Hi and welcome to this effective guide on how to get max speeds while downloading from Rapidshare.com!

    You will need:
    * IDM - I am using version 5.12 however this guide will work for most versions
    * Preferably Mozilla Firefox (Opera and others should work too)
    * A Premium Rapidshare account (See the very bottom for Free Users)
    * 5 Minutes of your time

    Ok, lets start with the basics:

    Step 1

    Download IDM (Latest Build 10):

    Code:
    http://rapidshare.com/files/196906768/IDM_v5.15.6-BRD.rar
    Once you have installed and patched your copy you're ready to go!

    Step 2

    Open up IDM from the taskbar:

    Step 5

    Now, the first tab named "General" shows your browser integration - as you can see IDM automatically sets Mozilla and IE to be integrated after installation however if they aren't, check the boxes. The same applies if you are using Opera or another browser listed.

    Step 6

    You will notice that once you have successfully integrated your browser and restarted it you will come across some more options when you right click - we will come back to this later

    Step 7

    In order for IDM to work with Rapidshare correctly, it is vital that you set your downloads in your premium account to "direct" Otherwise you will find yourself downloading 3kb files

    Go to:

    Code:
    http://rapidshare.com
    Next click "Premium Zone" and enter your details:

    Step 10

    Click "New" and enter your Rapidshare details as follows:

    Now you're ready to go, lets try it out. Find any rapidshare link highlight, right click, and select "Download with IDM" like this:

    You can do this for any link you want however if you want to download multiple links at the same time there is a quicker way

    For example, I want to download this set of links here:

    This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1110x154.

    It would be a bit tedious to select each link individually so you can simply highlight more than one and download like you would just one link. You will notice a second window appears too

    Notice that you need to check all the tick boxes to make sure the files are downloaded, then click "ok." This will add all the downloads to your list:

    You can use this function for many things. For example, say I had 20 links to download however I wanted only 5 to download at the same time I could make this work:

    Using IDM to download from Rapidshare as a Free User

    Many people claim that you can only use IDM with Rapidshare if you have a premium account however this is incorrect.

    Step 1

    Make sure you have follwed Steps 1-6 of the main Tutorial - Browser Integration again is vital for this to work.

    Step 2

    Make sure IDM has been set to intercept certain filetypes. You can set IDM to intercept any file ending however the most common in Warez are .rar files. IDM should be automatically set to intercept them however make sure

    Remember you can't pause and resume your download if you are downloading as a free user. Doing so will result in you being unable to complete the download.

    isn't this the second time you have put this same thread?

    anyway it is much useful for guys rather than the threads of hatred.

    am not using IDM but leave a thanks to bump the thread for other users.
