First, login in your rapidshare premium account.
Then, just select the links and use "FlashGot Selection".

may i ask why Flashgot has got NO possibility to enter Premium info in order to avoid the hassle to logon first to RS ?

For a couple of reasons:
  1. It would require dedicate UI, which would be useless for most if not all the other services, since they intelligently and kindly provide persistent "Remember me" authentication cookies (like RS used to do as well)
  2. No that RS' login system became AJAX-based, it would be a real PITA to implement an automatic logon (and that's why FlashGet ceased to work this way, i suspect).
What I'm exploring for next FlashGot version is transparently upgrading Rapidshare's cookie to persistent, so you've got to login from Firefox just once in a lifetime (or when you change your account details), rather than in every session.

Hi Giorgio
First post here because RS will not work with mass downloader anymore. So I installed Flashgot and checked the settings in MD for IE integration so that Flashgot would allow me to select MD as default downloader. That worked but now I still get error about ssl from RS. I have logged into RS with Firefox but not IE. I read on the Flashgot website about installing ONLY the IE integration and not the mozilla. Is this still true?? I can't login to RS with IE6 because it does not support html5 which RS is using, correct? The main RS site is all mixed up with IE6 and I cannot select anything to login. Only Firefox allows me to login which like I said I did. Any tips??

The main problem with current Rapidshare is that it used SSL and it does in a way that is not compatible with many download managers.
As I said, one that has proven to be working just fine with FlashGot and current Rapidshare is Free Download Manager.

So is my problem not related to cookies?

If you're already logged in (from Firefox) and it used to work for you, no.

One last question, will flashgot use the firefox cookie and pass it to FDM if I switch to that manager?

Hi, I also have a question, may be a little stupid... but still
How's faster: download multiple parts of a file simultaneously or one-at-a-time?
