HowTo: Set up a RapidShare download ready alert
I’m sure that it happened at least a couple of times to everyone that hasn’t a premium account on RapidShare (the ones that have premium accounts don’t have to wait for download tickets) to forget about their download counter and the session to expire again and again as they were too busy doing other things more important (browsing other websites, etc). I sure know i don’t wait on RapidShare’s tab for that counter to stop.
This solution i found involves the Greasemonkey addon for Firefox (which is kept updated quite often) and a script from userscripts.org that’s named the same like my post is. After installing Greasemonkey addon and restarting Firefox (make sure you see a monkey head in the right bottom corner) you need to install the script that reminds you that the RapidShare download counter stopped.

The actual reminder is a message box that says “Download ready!” and brings on top the RapidShare tab so you can proceed and download the file, here’s a picture of it:
This way you don’t need to worry again about forgetting about the counter, your cookies expiration as you won’t need to repeat the same process over and over again. Below there are some example pictures of GreaseMonkey’s GUI:
I hope this helps someone because i know it helped me a lot.
