[2 ??:-|]
I am extremely interested up to this point in this Rapid File Get. However, there is no instructions with the program. I understand that to most it is probably a very simple situation but I am hesitant to simply start clicking here and there as a learning procedure. I would like to know a bit more about this program and proper use. Furthermore, I am currently seeing this program as an assistance with Yahoo Messenger and/or MSN Messenger file transfers. As I am sure you are well aware these programs do not offer the option to reconnect and continue with a file transfer if disconnected such as DC++ and K-Lite do. Am I understanding this Rapid File Get is to make this much needed ability possible in MSN and Yahoo Messenger file transfers? Finally I am also confused as to how exactly one is to fill in the file to download part as well as the destination directory. Destination example such as: C:Documents and SettingsUsernameDesktop...etc...?? hopefully that was correct but what about the filename part? I hope I'm seeing this program correctly as it is such a god-send if it enables the messenger file transfers to resume from a disconnect...that would be sooooo kick ass!! Thanks for any help, Thcranky1 |

No Thcranky1, RFG work like FlashGet or GetRight, it isn't like p2p software.
It doesn't enstabilish a connection between two computer connected in internet, but connect a computer with a server web, like explorer does.
It's pourpose is only transfer a file from a server web (or ftp i think) to your machine like you can do when downloading some stuff from internet with your browser. The advantage of using RFG is that it can permit to resume "broken" downloads.

I appreciate your correspondance and yet I am sorry to do this as my response to you but...I need to further varify some things. So, idiosyncratically then, this program in and of itself functions as a file transferring program. What I mean is that it works like a file-sharing program like k-lite, Overnet, E-Mule and the like. Continuing from there, I sense that this program must also be in the possession of the friend or individual from whom you wish to recieve the data? So Rapid File Get simply makes a very easy connection ability fro two people to send data to one another. It is an extremely less hasslesome way to create a VPN in a matter of speaking, and it will also resume a transfer of data if the connection had been broken? Sorry for dragging you over the coals on this but I just am being thorough and safe. PEACE!!
Thanks Again,

Hello, Thcranky1
The only purpose of RFG in to download a file and resume transfer if connection is lost.
Obviously the download is resumed if the server you are connected support the resume commands.
I don't use MSN and Yahoo Messenger so I can't help you for this question.
The program is very simple:
in the 'File to download' text put the exact URL of the file to be downloaded, in the 'destination directory' put the directory to place the file (ex. c:\temp) then press play (>).
During download file will be named file.rfg. |
