nonstop downloads[rapidshare trick]

Now from my own example i know that we download loads of stuff from sites like Rapidshare.
Rapidshare offers a great service but in return demands for $. And there is free download available but if you want to download something like windows vista then you might DIE waiting as rapidshare asks you to wait after every download so as to preserve their bandwidth.
So is there any way around?

Actually answer is both yes and no. Coz though there are softwares out there that claim to override timer or enable parallel downloads most are useless and if you chose proxy servers then they are either slow or busy and again you have to wait.

But there is still one way you can get uninterrupted downloads just follow these simple steps:

Wait go on only if you have dynamic* IP address, if you have static* one then this is of no use to you.

1. Click on "Start" in the bottom left hand corner of screen
2. Click on "Run"
3. Type in "cmd" and hit ok

You should now be at an MSDOS prompt screen.

4. Type "ipconfig /release" without quotes of course and hit "enter"
5. Type "exit" and leave the prompt
6. Right-click on "Network Places" or "My Network Places" on your desktop.
7. Click on "properties"

You will now be on a screen with something titled "Local Area Connection", or something close to that, and, if you have a network hooked up, all of your other networks.

8. Right click on "Local Area Connection" and click "properties"
9. Double-click on the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" from the list under the "General" tab
10. Click on "Use the following IP address" under the "General" tab
11. Create an IP address (dont worry just type 111 till you fill all gaps).
12. Press "Tab" and it should automatically fill in the "Subnet Mask" section with default numbers.(something like 255.....)
13. Hit the "Ok" button here
14. Hit the "Ok" button again

You should now be back to the "Local Area Connection" screen.

15. Right-click back on "Local Area Connection" and go to properties again.
16. Go back to the "TCP/IP" settings
17. This time, select "Obtain an IP address automatically"
18. Hit "Ok"
19. Hit "Ok" again

Done. now you will have a different IP.To be sure clear all your cookies and go back to rapidshare you will be able to download without any interruptions.

wont take more than 10 seconds so continue with your vista.
