CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
If you're interested in RapidShare, a file hosting Web site, this free toolbar gives you quick access to several related features, including uploading files, searching with the RapidShare bot, and adding your favorite sites to its database.
RapidShare Search Engine Toolbar features a large drop-down button for the toolbar options, which include clearing your search history, adding and removing toolbar buttons, and changing your toolbars skin. What you won't find here are such standard toolbar features as a pop-up blocker, weather forecast, or e-mail notification. There's a search field that uses RapidShares search functionality, and it quickly produced results, leading to related files for the search term. The Crawl This Site button lets you quickly add sites to the database, although some testers complained they didn't receive the verification page, which opens in a new tab. The Grab All Links on Page button only pulls up links that are in the RapidShare Bot database, so results will vary. One click of the Upload button takes you to a page to browse for and add files to RapidShare. Although it seems tacked on, the link to download proxy lists worked fine.
There's no Help file, but after installation a page appears explaining the toolbar's features. Like the verification page for the Crawl This Site, however, it didn't appear for all testers. If you use RapidShare, or plan to, this free toolbar gives quick access to upload files, and the search function worked well.
