Megaupload Captcha Auto Fill

It is a bit ironic that users are looking for ways to automatically fill out captchas to save time as captchas have been invented to prevent bots from accessing websites automatically. Most captchas on the Internet are either easily defeatable by bots (yes even those basic math equations can be solved automatically) or almost unreadable for the human eye (some Google captchas anyone?) that they may thwart of bots but also a great number of human users.

Megaupload is a file hosting service on the Internet that is displaying a captcha before the download link of a file will be shown on their website. The captcha is probably one of the easiest to recognize and fill out, pretty useless from the standpoint of defeating bots and annoying to users who download files from Megaupload regularly.

Megaupload auto-fill captcha is a Greasemonkey script for Mozille Firefox (and other compatible browsers) that will automatically fill out and send the captcha on Megaupload. This essentially means that the user does not have to enter the captcha nor click on a button to send it to the Megaupload server.

It practically feels as if there was not a captcha on Megaupload at all. A short explanation of Greasemonkey. Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension that can be installed just like any other extension in Firefox. Once the extension is installed it is possible to add so called userscripts to the web browser.

Those scripts are coded in JavaScript and change the behavior and look and feel of websites automatically.

    Hehe martin if that really worked that well I don’t think rapidshare and megaupload will be in business :) I tried and failed :<

    Speaking of which, does anyone know of a way around rapidshare’s download timer? I’ve tried tons of greasemonkey scripts but none seem to work :(

    I thought I owed this site the duty of showing you Cryptload. It’s even portable.

    cryptload.info

    analmadness:

    type “javascript:alert(c=0)” into yout url bar and hit enter and the timer will go to zero.

  6. Nic Moon says:

    That doesn’t work. Megaupload uses a server side timer as well. You can take a little off of it, but no where near 0. Greasemonkey has scripts for this.

    Annoying us with cruel CAPTCHAs says something about a website’s owner. Lucky for us, some people did bother to give it some though and came up with some nice ideas, like this one:
