Details:

The RapidShare AutoWait bookmarklet does not eliminate the time delay; But it does eliminate your wait by letting you leave RapidShare's download page without worry.

Rapidshare.com and other file hosting sites often forces "free users" to wait for a period of time before it is possible to download a file.

This forces users to either watch the count down timer, or leave the page hoping to return later.

Leaving the page comes with problems. Besides the mental distraction this causes, users are likely to return either too early or after a much longer wait than necessary.

Worst of all, if a user waits too long, the session will expire, causing the download to be canceled. The user is then forced to wait again.

SOLUTION: The AutoWait bookmarklet lets you leave RapidShare's download page with no worry.

  • No worry that you will forget to return.
  • No worry that you will wait longer than necessary.
