For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been lucky to stumble twice on RapidShare giving out free premium accounts while I was accessing RapidShare to download some files. You can always browse to RapidShare freeaccount.cgi to check but it’s very troublesome since you need to refresh each time to check.
The full link to for RapidShare Free Premium Accounts is rapidshare.de/cgi-bin/freeaccount.cgi.
If RapidShare is not offering any Free Premium Accounts, you will get a popup saying “All free-accounts are already taken“.
However, if you’re lucky to visit the freeaccount.cgi when RapidShare is offering Free Premium Accounts, then you will get a page where it ask you to enter your email address and 3 random CAPTCHA code to verify that its human registering and not some automated programs.
The RapidShare Free Premium account will be valid for 2 days and will not be deleted after those 2 days. You can extend your account month by month for free by uploading files and collecting premium-points. You get points as soon as someone downloads your files. RapidShare will delete expired accounts after 45 days. This means, you have whole 47 days to collect 10000 points. As you can see, RapidShare free premium accounts only last 2 days if you keep on downloading without uploading.
You can easily use the free programs below to automate checking of RapidShare free premium accounts.
1. RapidCheck
RapidCheck is a free RapidShare free premium accounts checker. It has 6 predefined sounds when there’s any rapidshare free premium accounts available. You can also choose if you’d like the program to check the freeaccount.cgi every 1, 3, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes.

2. CMS RSFAN v1.0
CMS RSFAN v1.0 is also free but it requires you to be a active member of CMS forum in order to access the download page. Somehow this program got leaked out and I found it. From the settings, I couldn’t find any sound notification on this program. However, you can define yourself the seconds or minutes you’d like the program to check for free RapidShare premium accounts. There is an extra feature where the program will open up RapidShare page using your default browser if the free accounts are available.

In my opinion, these free programs is great but it only takes RapidShare to change the freeaccount.cgi filename or the URL and the program stops working.
