Hi,

First thing - great script!
Second, www.megashares.com links are being displayed always as "dead" links (red)
although they are not. I have checked this with a premium
account. When logging-out from my account, it's OK.

My gear: WinXP SP3, FF 3.0.6, lattest GM & latest script.

Thank you!

@morag,
From the beginning, this script was designed to be a Link Checker for a forum dealing with MASSIVE amounts of links in posts. The only way to get consistent results was to run the script outside all accounts like you've found. The script has gained a little popularity, but still depends on being run as a Free User. This way we can add host sites on the fly without having to subscribe to everyone of them -- an impossibility financially. It doesn't necessarily mean that some sites won't display the same way from a Free vs. a paid perspective. But some definitely don't, like megashares.com.
..
There are no plans to change this way of operating right now. You could however, use a Download Manager like "Internet Download Manager" to handle downloading using credentials. You can stay in Free mode but use the Download manager to request files as a Paid user. It works for me with RS, MU, and DF.
..
