Use Rapget to queue downloads from file hosts
Rapget is a sweat little freeware program that can be used to download multiple files at once from over 60 file hosts including Rapidshare.com, Megaupload, Yourfilehost.com and others. The real beauty of Rapget lies in the fact that it automatically bypasses the annoying captcha that is used on most websites to prevent access with or delay download managers.
It is furthermore possible to add usernames and passwords of select websites to take advantage of memberships and premium accounts. For some services, this is mandatory as the program won't work otherwise at all. I was not able to download files from rapidshare.com for instance without adding premium account details.
Rapget provides a great and easy way to queue as many downloads as you want that are hosted on file hosting websites and download them with the same functionality that a download manager offers. It is furthermore possible to add proxies to Rapget which means that you can bypass country or IP limits that several websites impose upon their users.
Update: Note that Rapget has not been updated since 2008. It is likely that the majority of download options do not work anymore. I suggest you check out the following two alternatives instead.
JDownloader is probably the most popular tool to download files from file hosting sites. It supports hundreds of sites that you can download files from and all the features that you would expect a program of its kind. You can add premium account details to the application to make use of those accounts when downloading files. The open source program supports a variety of features, including options to unpack files automatically - using a password list if necessary -, support for multiple languages, automatic software updates and simultaneous downloads. The only drawback in my opinion is that it requires Java to run.
MiPony is an alternative to that that does not require Java. It is not as comfortable as JDownloader but comes close enough to be a viable alternative. It supports more or less the same sites as JDownloader so pick it up if you do not want to run Java on your system.

Program works great, but as soon as they update it, Rapidshare people in turn seem to change their Captcha code format/method. But when it works it’s great as you can set it and walk away from your PC.
I don’t use these file sharing sites often but this seems like a really helpful piece of software.
RapGet was more or less good at its time, but now, USDownloader is the best filehost download manager, it can be found here:

how to use rapget?
plz reply a.s.a.p.
Installed Rapget on my XP Professional. Insytallation was a breeze but can’t seems to get the rapget to work. Always failed when trying the link.. Any ideas?
u can use rapget by copying the download link
example: copy the rapidshare link that has a capthca on it and paste it on rapget then click the green arrow, wait a while and it will start smoothly
Hi,
I’ve been using Rapget to get files from Rapidshare smoothly. But I haven’t been able to get files from MegaUpload (of course I have paid account with MegaUpload.)
Anyone successfully get files from MegaUpload using Rapget, please advice.
Really aprreciate.
I have the same problem Ga Si Tinh
I can’t download from MU, but I can from RS.com
and where can I find USD ????? Since it’s not on his website anymore …….. :(
does not work with megaupload
DO NOT BOTHER
WASTE OF FUCKING TIME
i tried downloading from megaupload.. it works well.. but doesnt work with rapidshare..
any ideas on how to get it 2 work with RS??
@ black.marque
how did you get it to work with megaupload ? I even have premium account there and doesn’t work lol :(
for RS, you need to download & install SSL 32 libraries ;)
you can find them on the rapget site
install them into your rapget folder & defintly in c:windowssystem32 ;)
than it should work afaik
btw. get the latest version of rapget ;) = v1.41
grtz
lol I still don’t know where to download USD, since I don’t understand a frigging word of russian, but this rapget works fine ;)
Why is my RepGet closing evry time i paste more than 10 links at once.I am a RapidShare premium account user.Why is that happenig it just closes the RapGet program and i have to start it again and put maximum 10 download links in it….
Any1 can help?
what version you use ? use the latest version and/or reinstall this program. Delete the links.dat file maybe and try to reboot rapget.exe
base.rob could be corrupt also but I don’t think so. Be sure to install the SSL libraries ;) (see above)
you can find them here for example
http://rapidshare.com/files/159755243/ssl_32_lib.rar
i dont understand how to install there is 1 mp3 file and 2 dll`s no exe @ all i copied 2 dll`s into my rapget folder and it aint working….
OK i dled it from rapget site and installed into my rapget folder and it still doesnt work…..
Error message says cannot load file “base.rob”
I extracted only the base.rob file from the rapget rared file i downloaded i started rapget easy and the same problem happened i pasted 100 links into it it finished all downloads in 1 second and closed rapget!
Any1 has any idea whats wrong?
You have to paste the .DLL files into your rapget folder and also in c:windowssystem32 ;)
the mp3 is just for fun I added lol
base.rob = basic file you need to run rapget properly
download rapget again and reinstall it ;)
than it should work ;) (well I don’t have any problems with it
I did EVRYTHING exacly how u told me and it is still not working.When i paste to clipboard the items i press the green button to start the download all the links go green like he started and than in 3 seconds RapGet closes down on its own.It tottaly closes i need to reopen it.I really need some other help its not the stuff u are explaining me i got all that right and it still not working there is some other problem! Please Help some1
i did exactly wad ronny said. but nth happen…its not downloading. anyone please help. thx
that’s just not possible …
btw. Rapget can only be used with premium accounts. If you guys are free users, it doesn’t work at all … !
Than use cryptload or Jdownloader or something similar like that.
If you want I can upload my files of rapget, and try them on your comp.
btw. vista or xp ? doesn’t have effect actually cause I have both here and works perfect (with premium account)
Megaupload doesn’t work here (with premium account) dunno why, some guy I know has same problem. At him MU works but not RS :s strange problems
its XP and i have Premium ACc and the problem is same as i wrote down
I have windows vista and i cant get rapget to work it wont dl nething at all i did everything ronny said also and it still dont work
use orbit downloader
I have Vista here (even x64) I just copied my rapget folder from xp computer to here and works without errors …
Be sure to install the ssl32 libraries !!! (put them in rapget folder – for example c:rapet and put them also in c:windowssystem 32)
those ssl32 libraries are actually just 2 DLL files if I remember well.
my rapget folder contains these files => (since year and day …)
ssleay32.dll
rapget.ini
rapget.exe
readme_en.txt (not needed)
links.dat
some language (x:rapgetlanguage) folder wich contains the .LNG files
