@ Stan

I tried the http > https but it does not work with megaupload. Only rapidshare.


@ Lub

For £10 a month I can download as much as I want. Can you recommend something better?

[darkstate01]

haha £10 a month wow thats really expensive, Try any usenet provider, You get 30 + connections all ssl/Tls encrypted with different ports to use and best of all its a lot less than a tenner.
