This freeware application might be useful to some who are still downloading from rapidshare. You will need some experience with proxies, I´ll get to that later. As we all know rapidshare.de has a timelimit and a downloadlimit for every IP address that connects to their service. Now, what would be a great way to circumvent those limits ? Right, change your IP address and you are ready to download again. You could do this by manually changing the proxy server in your browsers settings or you could use a tool like the grabber.

You copy and paste a rapidshare link to (1), select a proxy from the list or chose to use no proxy at (2), click Grab at (3) and the verification image at (4) will appear.
A path to the file will appear at (5) and you can select a server to download it or add it to a download manager.
That´s the theory. You have to remember that the first downloads will work without proxy but you will reach one of the limits eventually and that´s the time when you will have to change your IP to continue downloading new files.
You could use google to find proxy servers in the format IP:Port and use a freeware application like Charon to verify them. The Grabber has an build in proxy checker as well but I´am used to Charon and did not test this one.
Another great feature is the Rapidshare Explorer which lets you search files using the well known google site: operator. Comes in handy as well.
