Cryptload Tutorial

[anal61]

This looks like a resounding NO,NO,NO we are not going to use this program that is just an excuse to get malware onto our machines.

It is unnecessary and potentially dangerous - 2 excellent reasons NOT to use this piece of garbage that by all accounts will not be available in a month or so.

To stop your rapid posts from being deleted just rename them to something that is not painfully obvious - such as the initials of the title then any bots will not be able to trace and so delete your posts.

I thaught this was pretty obvious but alas not.

Hey anyone could help with jdownloader? I am copying the link with ctr-c, and when I click in add URLs nothing happens, I add the link, click on PARSE URL and not a thing happens.

I wouldn't touch this thing with a ten foot pole. The only time I've encountered it was when attempting to download DJ's stuff. I'd rather forego the content than install this garbage on my machine. It is a mystery to me why anyone would want or need this program. It's child's play to prevent RS from deleting your uploads.

Here we have a piece of obscure third party software (which trips antivirus warnings) that expects you to provide it with your user ID and your password. This is just fucking crazy, you wouldn't even need to use the program once, just clicking the "OK" box during setup could send that critical info to their server.



All download managers are unsafe in this regard, but you can judge each of them on their track record before deciding whether to trust them with confidential info. As far as I can tell, Cryptload doesn't have a track record, since nobody uses it.

What is the name of this questionable file, and what type of file is it? (i.e. what is its extension?)

Here is one suggestion.
From:http://www.ipmart-forum.com/showpost...2&postcount=14
"The suspected file is nc.exe in the fritzbox folder. ESET just deleted
that file and cryptload continued to work properly. "

And what is a Fritzbox then?

From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FRITZ!Box
"FRITZ!Box is a series of residential gateway devices from the German
company AVM GmbH.
There are several FRITZ!Box models available, but the most popular are
the ones that combine DSL and SIP VOIP. The FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN for
instance combines the following functionality:
# DSL modem
# Router
# Network switch
# Wireless access point"

No such thing as 100% reliable software in my opinion. As a matter of fact when you visit the cryptload forum, you get a much more realistic view of what you can expect.
http://cryptload.info/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=10

Here is an example
From: http://www.cryptload.info/forum/show...93&postcount=1
"Where to start! I can't get cryptload to work at the moment and I
don't know what I'm doing wrong. In the setting when I try to do
anything or change anything I get a message in German telling me an
error has occurred. I can't check my premium account login as I just
get the error message. I'm running vista and I'm connected to a
wireless network via my laptop. Any suggestions on what to do would be
great........."

And the answer from "Main Staff" rated person is:
"run cryptload as admin or check if its blocked by a virus scanner or
firewall"

Running this software (under development+downloads stuff from the Internet) as Admin sounds like a bad idea.

There are some snake-oil-salesman arguments at;
http://cryptload.info/wiki_en/wiki/About_CryptLoad
"CryptLoad combines the Best Things of all known Download Managers and
gives you the possibility of direct downloading Encrypted Links, as
they are i.e. hosted by Rapidsafe.de."
It is nice too see that somebody has used and tested all the known download managers. Is it possible to expand on what lead to this bold conclusion? What criteria was used? For whom? What platforms?

As a side note, one seam to need additional plug-ins to make some things work properly.

However, I do think that cryptload is interesting, but currently there is no version for Linux/BSD/MAC. If there was an Open Source version I would happily have look at it.

I installed Cryptload some time ago, 'cause I found several links (pics) on another phorum I sincerely wanted.

It worked fine since today, as a DL-Manager it's useful when you let your machine run all night long.
The team's quite alert, they update their filters(?, whatever) within a few days when there are problems with filehosts.

There are just two minor things:
As an owner of a 8 year old computer, it takes long to start the program.
After the program catched the copied links (not the CL own ones .ccf), you can't find out what the orginal link was. So if the program would refuse to DL a file (which never happend) you wouldn't know how to DL it manually or search for the source where you found the link. Could be annoying.

Since I once changed my working-ID from "admin" to "user" I never had any problems with malicious software from the net.

If you have a premium account, why would you use a program like cryptload to download? Makes no sense.
