Rapidshare premium download manger compatibility fix

Rapidshare is one filehosting service that never stops surprising its customers.By altering its look recently, a majority of accounts had their default settings slightly altered making accounts incompatible with many download managers such as FreeDownloadManager (FDM) and the likes.Whether this was a strategic move (to drive users to download their own download manager) or not is questionable

The following steps will help you  make your rapidshare premium account compatible with popular download managers again

Step 1: Log into your rapidshare premium account and go to the 'My Rapidshare' page.
Step 2: Go to the 'Settings' page as shown

Step 3:The 'Direct Downloads' options has been set to 'Off' (default)
.You will have to change this

Step 4: Change the 'Direct Downloads' option to 'On'





Step 5: Scroll down to the bottom of the same page click on 'Save Settings'

Step 5: Log out of your account (MUST) and voila!! you have now regained control of your rapidshare premium account!!!
