Rapidshare query

I'm not sure why this would happen, I have not been able to reproduce the behaviour you describe.
Please make sure you have your login cookie in Opera, go to 'Settings->preferences->Advanced->Cookies' then click the 'Manage Cookies...' button. From the list of cookies you should see one for 'rapidshare.com' with a value of 'enc: ' followed by a sequence of hexadecimal numbers. This is what DownloadStudio uses to Download from rapidshare.
If you paste the url into the opera address bar, http://www.rapidshare.com/files/4145...V.XVID-IHD.AVI, do you get the download dialog in opera?
If I paste the url http://www.rapidshare.com/files/4145...V.XVID-IHD.AVI into opera I get the download dialog, same again if I add .htm onto the end.

Interesting, your link works, however the link posted on the web site does not:
http://rapidshare.com/files/41452635...V.XviD-iHD.avi
With this link I get the download dialog, however a HTML document is retrieved, telling "This file is larger than 200 Megabyte. To download this file, you either need a Premium Account, or the owner of this file may carry the downloading cost by making use of "TrafficShare"."

There seems to be an issue with this file on rapidshare, the link on the web site is the same as the link I posted but sometimes the size of the file will be 600mb other times 195mb, so maybe rapidshare has different versions of this file on their mirrored servers? When you get the first link it is the 600 mb file, but if you change the link it becomes the 195mb file and you are allowed to download this because it is less than the 200mb limit?

Hi,
I reinstalled version 6.0.3.0 and it's downloading Rapidshare files again.I tried the updated versions .4.0 and .5.0 and it wouldn't work those two.So I guess I'll stick with what works for me.3.0.
Thanks for all your replies.

When a download job is passed from the web browser to DownloadStudio 6.0.3 the cookie passed with the job is used regardless of whether the domain of the referrer matches the domain of the link, so if you download from a page 'www.files.com' that contains rapidshare links and 'www.files.com' has it's own cookie then DownloadStudio 6.0.3 will use this cookie to try and download and will fail to download the rapidshare links. A change was made in 6.0.4 to check the domain of the referrer against the domain of the link and to ignore the cookie if these don't match, this should make downloading from rapidshare much more reliable. Could you please provide us the page from where you are downloading so that we can test this out?
