    "A good downloader, no surprises, works in Win XP."

    December 15, 2009  |   By mediaskeptic2009

    Version: RapidShare Downloader 4.16

    Pros

    Copy/paste your links, hit "Start" and WAIT! The program will take a few minutes to find proxy servers that WORK after you click "start". Minimize to the sys tray, audible clicks are proxy server connection attempts. Default saves to c:\downloads

    Cons

    Wish there was more documentation, but then I didn't really look too hard for it!

    "THE Essential Tool for Multiple or Multipart Downloads!"

    September 7, 2009  |   By smcbryde

    Version: RapidShare Downloader 4.14

    Pros

    It's easy to use, includes a nice little graphical progress interface, and can download dozens of files completely unattended.

    Cons

    Tends to become intrusive between downloads. When checking on the availability of the next download, it becomes the active process which tends to interfere with other things you might be doing. A minor irritant, not enough to outweigh its benefits.

    Summary

    You copy the RapidShare URLs to the clipboard, RS Downloader grabs them automatically, you click to start the downloads and let it do its thing! No more checking availability, wait times, or progress.

    All in all, RapidShare Downloader is one of the best ideas to come out of the file-sharing community. Although limited only to files found on RapidShare (would be nice if it worked with other file-share sites, as well), it does its job well.

    If it weren't for its minor intrusiveness and RapidShare limitations, RapidShare Downloader would warrant a full 5 stars, easy.

    "problematic"

    August 26, 2009  |   By haksoy

    Version: RapidShare Downloader 4.14

    Pros

    it' free
    saves time and effort
    captures links from clipboard

    Cons

    -unstable
    -there is no stop button.
    -sometimes delete button does not work
    -doesn't start dl and go into waiting state even rapid allows it.
    -no `always on top` option
    -there is a nagging error screen and no option to turn it of.

    Summary

    You can't trust this program and leave it alone because it may stop working after a few downloads.(not because of the limitations of RS)
    I hope next version it becomes more stable and user friendly.

    "Effective, Very Easy To Use"

    June 14, 2009  |   By frankvii

    Version: RapidShare Downloader 4.9

    Pros

    This does just what it says it does. If you just want something that gets your rapdishare free downloads, without sitting there waiting for the timer to time out and then having to manually start the downloads....then get this software.

    Cons

    None. The above mentioned cons (for me) are some improvements, but not really "cons".

    Summary

    I have Windows XP with SP3. The software seems to work flawlessly. Here is how I've used it:
    1. I've gone to a web site, highlighted and copied a single link and it was automatically pasted into the downloader.
    2. I've got a list of donwloads in a text file. I've copied the entire list at once and it too was automatically pasted into the downloader.
    3. I've used the ADD option, pasted in a text file whose links were on one line, separated with commas, and all those were added to the downloader.
    4. After the links are in the downloader, hit the Start button, thats it. The program starts with the first file in the list and attempts a single download every couple of minutes. After a success, it moves on to the next one.

    My downloads seem to be about double the speed I was getting just using the built in browser file transfer (Firefox).

    The only thing I've found bad (annoying) with the program was an easy fix. There is a small progress window that stays on the screen, on top of everything, no matter what you open. This screen can be removed by deselecting "Show Info Window" in the settings menu.

    If you don't like this program it comes with its own uninstall icon. I haven't tried that though because I am very pleased with it.
