For Windows:

Step 1

Go to add hardware (may be found in control panel, and elsewhere).
Click “Next”
Let it search for devices,
Then click: “Yes, I have already connected the hardware
Click “Next”
You will be given a choice of installed devices.
Go down the list and select:: “Add a new hardware device”
Click “Next”
Select: “Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced)”
Select “Network adapters”
Click “Next”
Select “Microsoft” for manufacturers & “Microsoft Loopback Adapter” in the opposite list.
Click “Next”
The virtual device is installed.

Step 2

Open network connections (may be found in control panel, and elsewhere).
Select both your network adapter and the device installed above (press control key and click on both connection, or use your way to select them.
Right-click on any of the selected devices and select on the list: “bridge connections”
A third device should appear in the list. If you see it, Windows should have changed your IP address.

If you don’t have Windows, or if you have any problems, install a hypervisor, such as Sun Virtualbox, an open source (search in Google). It comes with a virtual device which you may use to bridge.

Like this site quite a bit but with your review kindness of… QUOTE “…the Rapidshare Download Accelerator adds itself to the impressive list of useful tools to make the most of the file hosting service.”END QUOTE Then the seemingly astute Marley brought to attention that this app is dodgy at best.?

Rapidshare Dowload Accelerator
RapidShare is one of the world’s most widely used to share files of all kinds. Thus, from movies to TV series, games, books, applications and operating systems are available for download.

Although there is much the…

Trying it again today, it downloaded 60 MB of a 100 MB file, and reported it as finished, then tried the next file.
Fortunately, i can just stop it now and ignore this “solution” that just does not work.

And, while I thought it was working properly yesterday, it indeed does not properly manage the “x” to close the program.

I used this to (try to) download a 10-part file. It only got #1 and #7 successfully, with just a tiny stub for the others. After this, it wouldn’t start up again. I closed the app and restarted it, and same deal. I discovered that, as you noted, it does not shut down properly. So I killed it and restarted manually, to the same result.

So I tried to grab the next part manually, and it said that I was already downloading something (when the app claimed to have finished hours ago). I gave up for the night.

I came back this morning and tried again with the app. Still no luck. Why would it think that I was still downloading something?

So I rebooted my computer and tried again manually, and it still says that I’ve got a current download. I went to shower, come back a half hour later, and it STILL says there’s an active download.

Something really smells wrong now, and as you said, I can no longer use RapidShare at all, even manually.

Running full-system virus scan now…
