Megashares Website - Can't Download on OS X or XP

[John Doe 57]

I have some links that I need to download but the stupid site keeps telling me that I am already downloading from them! I checked their FAQ section but they gave me answers to question if I were a registered user of Megashares.

I've tried downloading on my MacBook Pro, My iMac, and Windoze XP via Parallels Desktop - but no luck!

Sounds & looks like a scam site. Are you 100% sure it's legit?

Yeah cause I already downloaded one file today. It was 350 megabytes in size. Usually there is a timer saying how much time I have to wait until I can download my next file - but there is no such thing!

Consider this thread dead. I found other links to a different site:

Rapidshare (I've used this one for years)

Rapid share is great.
Check out the program JDownloader, I recently tried it and it is awesome for rapid share.
You can view your premium account details, add archive passwords (if there are any) and it will extract files for you automatically..
Plus if you dont have a premium account, It will enter the secuirty string in automatically.

Well mine used to... but now they just lease the IP for a few months.. Close enough

as for the rapid share 5gb limit, I agree... It used to be sooooo much better before they restructured the whole thing. But now I just get 100gb of traffic share.. and it usually lasts longer than the month.

O2 in the UK does it for five pound a month extra.

Every ISP if you ask.

Its normally standard if you have business broadband, which is why your ISP asks if your a business or an individual when you sign up.

Some ISP's make you pay extra but BT doesn't.

Having a static IP also has disadvantages too
