Search Rapidshare and Megaupload: A Tool for the Lazy Leecher
search for Rapidshare files in a previous post, but it certainly wasn't the final word on the subject. Our previous method searched for webpages on the Rapidshare.com domain that contained our search terms, but the method we will discuss now involves searching for external webpages that contain links to files hosted by Rapidshare. One disadvantage of this method is that outdated links may be more likely to pop up in search results.
Along with our new method, we have a new tool; a reader recommended ShareMiner as the search engine of choice for what we are about to do. It dramatically simplifies the process of conducting searches by offloading the tedious task of typing in code to the ShareMiner search engine. ShareMiner not only supports searching for files on Rapidshare, but also those residing on the servers of Megaupload, SendSpace, Badongo, Megashares, and 7 other services.
How does it work? Once you get to ShareMiner, simply type in the name of the movie, software, video, music, or other file that you're looking for, check the services you want to search, and ShareMiner does the rest. Search results will open in a frame below the search pane.
We conducted a search for pages that contained the word "Vista" on pages that linked to download pages on Rapidshare and Megaupload. This returned almost 800,000 results. Pretty impressive. You can see in the screenshot below that the search syntax is, in plain language, search term "Rapidshare link"|"Megaupload link". | stands for "or". Obviously, you could duplicate this search manually, but why bother when ShareMiner does the work for you?
Your next step could then be to plug in the URL to a download manager like USDownloader for speedy leeching.
