I've been trying to use that 'disconnect, delete cookies, reconnect' trick to get around rapidshare's hourly download limit, but no matter what, it doesnt seem to work.....any ideas? I am on cable, does that make a difference?
"This IP xxx.xx.xx.xx is not allowed to use the free-service anymore today. We detected very extreme downloads. Don't worry! This has not to be your fault.
Maybe you use a proxy-server."
Not guilty!

if you got XP try deleting the contents of your prefetch folder, and temp internet folder...you can even zap history as well
I'm having the same problem here.,.. I work at a place that has the same IP number, no matter how many times I disconnect... :-( I'm a computer technician and i'm stuck to this, that's a shame hehehhe
I've tried to connect anonymously to Rapidshare using "Complete Anonymous Web Surfing".... I guess that was the name of the software, yes.... Anyway, every IP that the program gave me, got banned by Rapidshare... I'll try this softeware you guys posted, instead!
Okay this is the trick i use,
I let WindowWasher from Webroot software wash my internet and windows tracks.
Then i restart my pc and can download 1 file again.
Of course you have to do this everytime you want to download within the 1 hour waitingtime and so maybe its a bit hard work or not worth it.
Distance
There is another thing I discovered when downloading from Rapidshare (free): You have to go through a couple of pages until you reach the desired download link.
I searched through my download history (I use Firefox as a browser) and found the originating links for the files. While donloading one I tried the former ones, and surprise it works.
To be brief:
The anouncing URL is: link
The actual location is: link
So it would be a clever shortcut for those who downloaded to post the actual locations so we'd skip some steps and trick the fileserver.
What do you say?
