2. Click on free.
3. Enter the following line of code into your address bar and remove everything else

javascript:alert(c=1)

Hit enter. A popup showing 1 should appear. click ok, the window disappears and you have to enter some letters and click start download.

    Wow. Didn’t know you would be reading my site ATM. Got to add ghacks.net to my blogroll.

    *clicks*

  2. Martin says:

    I like your site, enough said :P
    Added you to my partner sites as well :)

  3. Lorissa says:

    This doesn’t work!

  4. Martin says:

    well it works for me

  5. Frank says:

    For me also

  6. Lorissa says:

    Well, I wonder if the two of you realize that you wouldn’t need to do this with the first file you download from RapidShare, only the second and subsequent files?

    Entering “javascript:alert(c=1)” to download the first file desired doesn’t do anything. You wait the required seconds and then enter the three characters and click “start download”. That works either way providing you aren’t using a proxy that has been used by someone else within the hour (or more) wait restriction between files.

    Trying the “example” given within the article at computerhelpforum.org proves nothing since this would be your first file to download and that’s not where the hourly wait restriction starts.

    It doesn’t work and that’s all there is to it.

  7. Martin says:

    6. I tried it with the first download, you are right. As I described I saw a countdown of 3x seconds, I entered the javascript, hit enter, the popup appeared, clicked ok and i could enter the characters immediatly and the countdown dissappeared.

  8. Lorissa says:

    As you should know by now Martin (Jyhad), I’m always right. :)

  9. pumix says:

    That is just plain silly. No offence. So you’re saying instead of waiting for 30 seconds I have to go fumbling and “hack” that waiting time? who even cares about the waiting time?
    The hourly download limit is the real (and only) problem with rapidshare, and unless you’re downloading your insulin off rapidshare that shouldn’t matter much either..

  10. Lorissa says:

    No, that’s not what was said at all. This procedure actually saves you absolutely nothing. In fact, it’s totally a waste of time and the space given it here and everywhere.

  11. FakeFx says:

    I tried it just now, and it seems it doesn’t work anymore. I tested this in Firefox and Opera, and nothing. :(

    Oh well.

  12. Lorissa says:

    FakeFx – feel free to read the entire thread. This NEVER worked!

  13. james diligent says:

    hi frnds.
    this is my first post.i am using rapidshare using a proxy settings coz i am in institute. now my prob is that after few downloads the rapidshare tells to wait for hell lot of time like 1 hr or 30 mins or so . like the one shown below:
    You have downloaded 85792 KB. Want to download more?
    Get your PREMIUM-Account now! Instant access! (Or wait 12 minutes)

    now plz tell me how to overcome this prob.i hav also tried bookmarklet but it also didnot work.
    hoping for a quick and positive response.
    bye take care
    james.

    Hi all!
    I’m from Hungary, sorry my bad english….
    I have TDSL with non-fix ip. When i finish download from rapids, quick discpnnect then reconnect to inet. i’ts working! D’nt need wait, only 47 sec. With this script : javascript:alert(c=1) reduce wait to 1 sec :)
    ALWAYS WORKING!
    Tipp: make shortcut to rapids site to shortc bar. Clik right and select properties. Paste into URL cell this script: javascript:alert(c=1).
    No more copy-paste-Enter keys:) Just clik on the new rapid key on the shortc toolbar:)
    PEACE from Hungary:)

  17. Iceman says:

    I tried the rapidLeecher and it keeps giving me the error :-9 =subscript out of range

    please advice…
    thanks

  18. mememomo says:

    nice job

  19. nombril says:

    I don’t understand the fuss. I wait a couple of seconds between downloads( rapid share), not a hour or even minits. I download as much as I wan’t. All I do is clear my cookies,turn off my modem, count to ten and turn it back on, then i’m free to download again.with out the long wait. I don’t know wy this works, but it does.

  20. Martin says:

    nombril this rapidshare trick is working because you probably recieve a new ip when you reconnect so rapidshare does not know that you already were downloading files minutes before.

  21. MeMan says:

    Qualifies Martin’s post…Nombril, your modem is being assigned a new IP from your ISP provider. Most ISP’s usually have more customers than they have IP addresses. So instead of assigning everyone one specific address they usually “roll” the IP addresses as they are requested by thier clients. So when you are gettin a new IP its like RapidShare sees you as a completely different client.

  22. MeMan says:

    Oh and Larissa this does/did work to get rid of the 45 second wait time. Its a very simple javascript injection which redefines the timer variable. This was not meant to allow multiple downloads by bypassing the 75 minute wait period.

  23. nombril says:

    Did you tru just turning the switch in back of your modem off, the back on again, wait a couple of seconds (to re login) and you wait 1 min instead of 77 min.

  24. nombril says:

    I’m senile, I’m sorry I posted before reading. OK how come the javascrip works for some but not for others? Thank you.

  25. friz says:

    hi can anybody iv me a user name and password for any of this sites

  26. raj says:

    hi is there anyway we can download mutliple files in rapidshare

  27. bitch says:

    hi might there be the possibility that im a FUCKIN leech who wants to use others accounts. fags raj and friz. go fuck yourselves.

  28. Idowatiwant says:

    “I’m senile, I’m sorry I posted before reading. OK how come the javascrip works for some but not for others? Thank you.”

    Having javascript enabled in your browser might be an advantage.. It does work, well for me Actually: “javascript:alert(c=0)” worked, i found it on some other site.. But you know, works for some doesn’t work for others..

  29. Saifee says:

    i have done as it was said. got to the download link, clicked on free and the next page where there is waiting time displayed appeared.after that on that page i put the java script on the address bar and then a msgbx apprd.i cliked ok and nothing hppnd.

  30. BinaryBrother says:

    This hack DOES work, and some of us ARE impatient enough to use it when the timer is set for 5 or 6 mins…
