Hmm, I changed my mind a bit.
If there's an interested Delphi-developer, who promises not to publish the sources, I'll provide him with them. They are adapted to the newest changes, and commented in German language. They are very interesting for education. They show (on a very simple way), how to implement the HTTP-protocol yourself: generate request-headers, receive the answers, and readout information (very basical HTML-interpreting), and finally to output the results to the user. So if someone is willing to use this tool and to learn from it, he'll get the source code-only-version (no binary), as long as he does not want to abuse any service (as this tool was never meant to do so), and as long as he does not publish the source code or parts of it.

What going to be rapidshare's next move? To make the actual file on server available after delay to stop people from using various client side tricks ??
or probably looks like it is already started

maybe then we must use another "file" server:
hxxp://www.mytempdir.com/ to thomasantony: Link is up!

you give up to early.
those lazy bastards developing the system, who blamed me for being "a service-abuser", did just implement a very, very lazy lock. you have to wait for the regular time when downloading the FIRST file, you can download all other files immediately. I don't know, for how long this "lock" is, maybe it needs to be refreshed every hour, so all you need to do is to go to the download page every hour by some tool running in the background...

I know, I'm talking about my internal version, which works like a charm! But making it public would make them have to change their "great system" again.

I posted the tool in another, more public, board.
BUT: Is the use of this tool really illegal? I can't imagine! All the tool does, is to generate HTTP-Headers, send them to the webserver via TCP/IP, receive the answer, and interprete it. So basically, it does not do more than a regular web-browser, it just interpretes the answer a bit different (it does not render a full HTML-page), in other words: it filters the answer. So why the hell should this be illegal? Skipping commercials on a video-tape is not illegal either!

Theory:
Rapidshare offers "free" use of its storage/file sharing service in exchange for your having to "view" advertisements from those who "pay" to advertise on their time delayed page. When you use their "free" service and circumvent their "advertising" you are interferring with their revenue stream, and that would tend to annoy any commercial venture. The "alternative" is a paid service, which would be their "alternative" source of revenue. Whether or not this is "illegal" would depend on what country the service is offered in and where "you" live and attempt to circumvent the system. It really doesn't much matter whether you circumvent their system unless such actions are "illegal" in YOUR country, but the action is essentially the same as accessing any "pay-for-view" database without "paying" the access fee. Essentially, this is the same as downloading warez software and depriving the author of the revenue from their work in producing the product. Regards,

you agree to their rulez if you download a file... that means to wait the time you have to wait
