How can i get around this problem when wanting to download a file on Rapidshare?

This is someone else as i am not downloading, unless someone just wants to share their username and password with me for two hours?

This is the error
"Your IP-address 196.207.***.*** is already downloading a file. You have to wait until it is finished."
 
Hi Farquaon
What some of my clients have done to get around this is:
-- register and host a domain
-- request a unique ip address for your domain
-- use something like cgi proxy to access rapidshare

Of course, you will still be subject to the "free user" limit of 100MB per hour or whatever it is, but you'll never have to wait for "someone else" to finish downloading (almost impossible because of Telkom's proxies).

Downloading through cgi proxy from my server is always around 50K per second, which is slow but acceptable.

If you already have a domain hosted somewhere, your provider might be willing to set this up for you?
