Skip waiting time on ZShare, RapidShare and DepositFiles with SkipScreen

File hosting websites like ZShare, RapidShare and DepositFiles trick their users to view many pages and increase visiting time before they can download files. This is done to maximize revenue stream for advertisements and affiliate programs. The most common trick to increase the ‘time spent on website’ is to deploy a countdown timer which asks users to wait before they can download the file, e.g. Rapidshare. The file hosting websites may also ask you to repeatedly click “next” on many pages before you can find a download link hidden in loads of ads. These time-consuming extra steps are really annoying. If you are also getting annoyed by these extra steps, you may use SkipScreen FireFox extension.

SkipScreen is a FireFox extension that allows you to download files from a file hosting website quickly by skipping pesky and useless webpages on various websites automagically. This FireFox extension skips the unnecessary and annoying ads like pop-ups, pop-under, full screen and full page ads and the download then begins immediately. When a page is skipped , a notification is displayed above the FireFox status bar.

As of now, this FireFox extension works perfectly on zShare, Mediafire, Sendspace, Sharebee, Rapidshare, Megaupload, DepositFiles, Linkbucks, Link-protector and more free file hosting sites.

SkipScreen can be downloaded and installed on your FireFox browser for free. Click here to download the SkipScreen FireFox extension.
