I always have a RS account, and recently just tried hotfile for one go. They both work the same with my flashget: i highlight the links in the browser with the cursor, hit copy, flashget dialogue pops up and then i just confirm the login to the RS/hotfile server and it goes into my manager and i click it later and it downloads with no issue.

First time i tried megaupload premium account and i'm confused:

I do everything the same highlight links, copy, they seem to go into the flashget que list, but the file names are wrong and i command them to download form there and they download nothing (empty 1kb gibberish files). What's going on here? Do megaupload links have different properties? You can't select the links as they appear in the browser? Do i need their filemanager to get the same benefits that i normally would from flashget? I heard that megaupload filemanager causes spyware or other harmful things. My account works, clicking independent links and doing it the usual way works, but that's slow and i bought an account for maximum easy and to spare my time.

thanks
