Rapidshare Premium

[henniebriel]

Hi all. I have a Rapidshare premium account and so far it has been working great. The problems started last Sunday when Rapidshare started to tell me:
"The premium account xxxxxxx is already in use with another ip. It looks like this account is used on different computers at the same time.

Please try again later.

IP: 198.54.202.218 - 196.25.255.0/24."

When I phoned them they said that my logs show me logging in from more than one pc?

thus 196.25.0.0/16 and 198.54.0.0/16

I did some research and found that its Telkom using different proxies whilst I browse. I'm using 'DownThemAll' extension in Firefox and when a second chunk of a file starts, it sometimes logs into Rapidshare with the second ip and Rapidshare drops the whole download. It wastes soooo much bandwidth...

I have now put a rule in my iptables to only use 198.54.0.0/16 and drop 196.25.0.0/16 and also in Firefox's proxy settings to regard 196.25.0.0/16 as local but its not working as I anticipated?

I'm not sure why.
Can anyone please help me sort this out?

Bye
Hennie
