Hi
I get this whenever I download from rapidshare.

The download session has expired.

Possible reasons:

* The download takes to long to be saved.
* For this download, in the background your Internet Service Provider has assigned a new IP address. If you are for example an AOL customer, or use a similar Service Provider, please try to use a different browser.

Please Advice.

^^ Rapidshare doesnt look at the cookies, it detects you've downloaded based on your IP.

yah,it looks at what bandwidth u consumed during continuous download period and restricts you for sometime, forces to wait :(.

better wait, as i have done all tricks.. i have made the counter to 0 using javascript also but it then unvalidates it :(

so better we shld wait and download... :)

Hehe, rapidshare maintains its internal counter in its server, you cant fool that :)

It used to be pretty simple ages ago -
Code:
javascript: c=0;
