Megaupload & IDM Link grabbing issue

I have been facing this issue since yesterday morning. I have a premium MU a/c and I use IDM to download all my files. But since yesterday, can't seem to enqueue any links in IDM, they just turn into HTML file after selecting 'Download with IDM' option. I have double checked my credentials in IDM and they are all correct. Megaupload site is loading fine. Even 'Direct Download' option is enabled in my account settings. I don't even get an error message for it. When I untick the 'Direct Download' option & then click on any one link manually, I can download that file.

Is anyone else facing this issue? It's only been happening since yesterday. Rapidshare is working fine and I haven't made any changes to the browser, MU a/c or IDM settings either.

maybe browser settings(like opera turbo mode) do check if advanced browser integration is checked or not.
 
It was a temp maintenance issue i think....both RS and MU working perfectly fine now with IDM,check out.

EDIT
Also,there's a new version available: IDM 5.19.4

Changelog

- Added workaround for rapidshare.com changes
- Improved processing of downloads from several file sharing sites

That option is for allowing users to download files directly from your account which you have uploaded. If you dont want to loose bandwidth turn off that option. I think megaupload has a fair usage policy of some Gb's after which all downloads are throttled to 30-40Kbs for 1-2 hours.

Yep it's working fine now. I'd probably have to get that latest version of IDM. Thanks for the heads up.

It isnt working till now on my side..

IDM grabs the link once the waiting time of RS is over but does not shows the size of downloading file, hence the downloading doesnt really starts.. :(

--- Updated Post - Automerged ---

same issue is with free download manager
 
These problems happens to me sometimes... Sometimes really maintenance is the matter but sometimes I found that when downloading via browser works fine but not with IDM. So i found a solution... logined to my premium account in firefox and pasted 1 downlink and IDM captured the link as premium. Next all link can be directly captured via IDM as premium without pasting in browser. I think it's some cookie problem.

i do not think so, because when i faced the problem i already had a list which gave me error but i did not delete it & then i continued from the rapidshare download manager

then i am continuing the same download list now, i usually spend few hours a month to list my whole months of download & this was the first time i faced such problem & also the first time rapidshare guys did not reply to my problem.
 
Just Use JD Once U will forget IDM.

Downloaded Today Morning Approx 2 GB From MU (Just like Yesterday and Any Other)..No Problemo

Its Way (Way) Better Than IDM/FDM

Just Wanted to Help.....
 
@malhotraraul, U mean that u used IDM first and it didn't work after that u tried using RSM2 with same links and it worked. right? If that so, I used to have that problem (not with rs) with MU, HF and it got solved like that as I mentioned.
