Hi guys!
Now-a-days we see some restrictions for Indian users on Megaupload, like:

All download slots (500) assigned to your country (India) are in use.
Please try again later.
But following method works gr8 to overcome this problem! :)

STEP 1: Goto following site:

*www.guardster.com/subscription/proxy_free.php

STEP 2. Type the megaupload link in the textbox where * is already written.

STEP 3. Uncheck all the options, like "No Cookies, No Scripts, No Images, Hide Referrer, Hide User Agent, Hide Title, Hide Header"

STEP 4. Click on the button "I agree an wish to surf anonymously".

And VOILLA, the LIMIT for Indian users will be no more there :)

PS: Afaik, this tutorial is not Illegal and the method used above it totally legal. But if admins think that it doesnt come under forum rules, then pls remove the thread!:(

Great stuff but rapidshare still can find that you are using an IP other than yours.

why use megaupload?

yousendit.com is better. or find a forum with a nice upload limit. host your file there and send the link to other people.

Even guardster returns error at times like a new page open with a "0".
It happens after u have downloaded for a while (my frnd never faced this prb.)

If this happens, I just close the window, clear private data (cookies, history, etc.) & guardster starts working again...

Rite... For me Zone Alarm anti spyware reports alexa as spyware and removes
the entries automatically from the registry.

I have Rapidshare Golden Pack 2006. But b4 installing I want to know
if it is legal to use RSGP? My friend have already received a warning from Rapidshare for using leechers and ids he got from RSGP

Not so. DL from rapidshare then disconnect and reconnect again and no more time limit problems. It works

Finally Hide IP Platinum is working for me to help me download from RAPIDSHARE and megaupload...

If u cannot download from RAPIDSHARE using Hide IP, try this:

1. First check all ur applications connecting to the net are not active like Antivirus update, s.w updates, etc.

2. Then start Hide IP Platinum and select HIDE IP.

3. Meanwhile dont open any browser, messengr, etc.

4. Once ur fake IP is set, then start using ur net.

It seems that even if one appli. is accessing the net b4 Hide IP changes ur IP, Rapidshare wont work. So be careful.

In case u get "already downloading" error, just change ur IP....

Hide IP works the best for me in Firefox 1.5

Megaupload:Bypass "All download slots in use

For Firefox:
First go to

Code:

*addons.mozilla.org/firefox/59/
Click Install Now to install addon.
Restart FF. Tool-->User Agent Switcher--->Options--->Options
Click User Agents--->Add
Type this:
+ Description: MEGAUPLOAD
+ User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; Alexa Toolbar)
Click OK twice to finish adding User Agent.

From now, before downloading any file on megaupload just go Tools--> User Agent Switcher--->MEGAUPLOAD.

For IE:

Start/run->> type regedit -> ok
Go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Wi ndows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform]

Note: if U use IE 7
go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Wi ndows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform]

Right click on Post Platform > New > String Value > type Alexa Toolbar > ok

Now U can download from megaupload without error : "All download slots (..) assigned to your country (....) are in use"

P.S.:I haven't tried the IE trick,the FF one is working like a charm for me. sorry for opera users

Another way for firefox users only!( same as described above.works 100 %)

First go to


CODE
*addons.mozilla.org/firefox/59/



Click Install Now to install addon.

Restart Firefox. Tool-->User Agent Switcher--->Options--->Options

Click User Agents--->Add

Type the following or copy paste.

Description: MEGAUPLOAD

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; Alexa Toolbar)

Click OK twice to finish adding User Agent.

From now,

before downloading any file on megaupload just go Tools--> User Agent Switcher--->MEGAUPLOAD

FOR INTERNET EXPLORER USERS

Start->run-> type regedit -> Press ok

You will see a Plus Sign in Front of "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" Press that. Similarly Press Plus sign for Others

* Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows->CurrentVersion->Internet Settings->5.0->User Agent->Post Platform

* Right click on Post Platform > New > String Value > type Alexa Toolbar Then Press Enter

IF U R USING IE 7

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows->CurrentVersion->Internet Settings->User Agent->Post Platform

* Right click on Post Platform > New > String Value > type Alexa Toolbar Then Press Enter

Then restart PC.

This fixes will let megaupload think that you have the megaupload toolbar (alexa) installed in your computer so you are able to download without any limit.

enjoy !

For firefox, the easiest direct way is:
Type: about:config in the Firefox address bar
-Search for general.useragent.extra.firefox
-Double click on it
-Change the default text with this: Firefox/2.0 MEGAUPLOAD 1.0;)
