    A couple of months I signed up to Rapidshare and started download via the Bolt website with no problems BUT the last couple of weeks any links (rar) that I download are very small and I can't extract.

    Has anyone had any similiar problems?

    Any solutions would be gratefully received....cheers

    You need to buy more rapids.

    are you using a download manager?

    are the files still online?

    I have enough rapids, I'm using the Flashget manager and I believe the files are still online.
    I tried downloading files I successfully downloaded a couple of weeks ago.

    had the same problem Flashget manager does not work with rapidshare
    anymore
    I had to switch to jdownloader which is java based
    not as good as Flashget manager but does work.

    internet download manager is what you need.

    very simple and easy to download.

    Rambo,

    I have started using the free version of jdownloader, it works but it takes a while to download files.
    Example its taken me almost a week to down Season 4 (13 episodes) of The Shield.

    Does it take you that long to download?

    Cheers...

    Have you actually entered your rapidshare premium info in jdownloader?
    Go to premium > host k-t > rapidshare.com > add account

    Should fly along then, and you can also look into increasing the max number of connections/downloads in the bottom right (default is 2 which may be a bit low...)
