===================================================================================================
This script was originally developed to be run on The Cavern Forum. It has evolved through the help of many of you to check other sites/forums. Enjoy.
*Version 2.01*
===================================================================================================
Current sites/links handled:
===================================================================================================
badongo.com, depositfiles.com, easyshare.com, egoshare.com, filefactory.com, filesdump.com, hotfile.com, kewlshare.com, letitbit.net, mediafire.com, megashare.com, megashares.com, megaupload.com, megavideo.com, netload.in, rapidshare.de, uploadbox.xom, uploaded.to, uploading.com, ziddu.com, zshare.net
rapidshare.com -- Uses a chunking method to submit large numbers of RS links. Prevents banning.
===================================================================================================
Recommendations
===================================================================================================
Disable any Direct Download options at the file hosting sites you are subscribed to. This prevents
any automatic downloads that can kick-off behind the scenes, out of the script's control.
If you use Megaupload, you definitely needs to do this.
