Lately I have seen more and more Mega mirrors cropping up which is good but to be honest many people face problems with the way it lets users download files. So I thought of sharing this software which I have been using since it was first released. It's called MegaDownloader. The software is clean and open source. If you find the project useful please donate to the creator on the official site (like I did ![[Image: smile.gif]](http://bestblackhatforum.com/images/newsmilies/smile.gif)
) and I hope a MOD makes this thread sticky so that everyone can benefit from this software.

Quote:What is MegaDownloader?
MegaDownloader is a download client for MEGA.CO.NZ, allowing you to easily download files from MEGA.CO.NZ![[Image: uKp57ac.png]](http://i.imgur.com/uKp57ac.png)
Is it an official app?
It is a standalone unofficial application. It's free and there is no charge for using it or download it.
Can I upload files?
Yes, you need MegaUploader!
Why MegaDownloader?
Fast: You can download multiple files simultaneously with multiple connections per file, squeezing the bandwidth.
Lightweight: Takes up less than 2MB and consumes little resources. It requires no installation, is a single exe. It doesn't create giant temporary files. Just uses a small buffer in memory and stores the file directly in disk.
Secure: No ads, banners, or anything. It doesn't collect information from user. Only connects to MEGA.CO.NZ to download the files, and periodically checks for updates. Nothing else. And sensitive internal information is stored locally encrypted using DPAPI and AES.
Simple: Its interface is simple to use: add links and start downloading. That's all!
Complete: It allows pausing, stopping and resuming file downloads. It enqueues files, grouping them by packages, automatically decompresses RAR/Zip/7z files, detects links from the clipboard, can limit the download speed, is multilingual, can be controlled from the phone / remotely with its integrated web server, can be configured to automatically start or shut down the PC when finish, can reconnect in case of error, etc. Ah, and you can watch videos online via streaming
What requirements does it have?
You must use Windows XP SP3 or higher (Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, etc) and have installed .NET 4.0 or higher.
It also works on Mac with Parallels, considering that you install .NET 4.0 or higher.
How does it decrypt files?
The decryption is made on the fly, while downloading, so no extra resources are used (RAM or disk).
How do I start downloading?
First you must start the program and wait for it to load.
Then you have to add links to download.
You can click on the "Add links" button, or copy them to the clipboard - MegaDownloader will detect them!
Then, just add one or more links and put them in the queue.
Once in the queue, you might check the status:
- Stopped: Connections are closed and download is stopped.
- Downloading: The queue items are being downloaded in order.
- Paused: The connections are open but the files are not being downloaded. When it returns to the state 'Downloading' it will immediately start downloading.
How do I configure the program? There are many options!
You can use the default settings, without touching anything, to begin downloading. When the setup screen appears, click Yes, and that's all!
The only option you have to look a bit is the default download path (where the file is saved). The default path is Windows Desktop. If you do not specify a default path, you will have to enter it every time you download something.![[Image: HPiQ7GG.png]](http://i.imgur.com/HPiQ7GG.png)
How I can see the remaining time?
By default, some columns are not shown. Right click on the column header of the list of downloads, select the columns to show or hide.
How can I watch videos online via streaming?

I cannot change the size of the name column!
This column is automatically resized by the size of other columns. Therefore you should modify the other columns to resize the name column. This is done to avoid horizontal scrolling.
I love the app! How I can thank you?
Any comments are welcome (you can find my contact in the program under "Help / About"). Constructive criticism if welcome too (but not destructive). If you like to see a new feature implemented, tell me and see if I can develop it.
