Crack Megaupload with Alexa toolbar user agent hack

Crack Megaupload with Alexa toolbar user agent hack



MegaUpload is a premium One-Click Hoster that is considerably easier
and with less restrictions for free (non-premium or non-paying) users
than RapidShare.de Webhosting + Webspace. However, MegaUpload still has
some restrictions which may be annoying at times, such as country based
download slots limitation where you can get an error message saying
"All download slots assigned to your country are in use.", slower
download speed, delay start of download with 45 seconds waiting, no
parallel downloads, no support for download accelerators and download
resumes, and the maximum file size allowed to upload and download is
250MB.

If you want to bypass and remove all download limitations
on MegaUpload, but don't want to pay a dime, there are a few
workarounds. One of them is by using proxy, or you can use the Alexa
Toolbar hack. In order to inflate the traffic ranking and reach in
Alexa, MegaUpload treats their users installed with Alexa Toolbar as is
partially premium users, and thus grant access to free users some of
the features available to premium members, including ability to
download without any country download slots limit.

The official
way to install Alexa Toolbar is to download and install the toolbar
from Alexa . However, if you're concern with the fact that some
anti-spyware utilities have labelled Alexa Toolbar as spyware, you can
use the following registry hack (for IE) and User Agent Switcher plugin
(for Firefox) without actually installing Alexa Toolbar.

Alexa Toolbar Hack In Internet Explorer 6 (IE6 and its variant such as Maxthon and Avant Browser)

Run Registry Editor by clicking on Start, then click on Run, type in RegEdit and click OK.
In Registry Editor window, navigate to the following branch:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform

Right click on Post Platform, then click on New, and then choose String Value.
Type in "Alexa Toolbar" in the text box.
Restart your PC, and you should have bypassed MegaUpload download limits.

Alexa Toolbar Imitation Hack In Internet Explorer 7 (IE7)

Follow exactly the same steps as above (IE6), but the Post Platform branch is located at the following tree:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform

FireFox Alexa Toolbar User Agent Hack for MegaUpload

Download and install the User Agent Switcher extension for FireFox.
Restart the FireFox web browser after installation ended.
Go to Tools -> User Agent Switcher -> Options.
Then click on User Agents and then click on Add.
Key in the following information:
Description: MegaUpload
User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; Alexa Toolbar)

Exit by clicking on OK twice.
Whenever
you want to download from MegaUpload, go to Tools -> User Agent
Switcher and select MegaUpload as FireFox's temporary user agents.
After downloading the files, you may want to switch back to original user agents, by selecting Default.
