It has been going on for months now with some affected and others not. There are also network changes to take into account as some UBR shuffling is still ongoing.

Try access it via HTTPS (e.g. https://www.rapidshare.com) as opposed to standard HTTP, and see if that works m8.

If you are a premium RS member try this script applet RS2IP - Convert RapidShare URL to IP Address (http://rs2ip.anonymailz.com/) see the how it works section and follow it accordingly. It basically converts RS URLs to a more user "friendly" link.

Sometimes it will come back within 24 hours with VM quoting it as a routing problem ;)

try in safe mode.

'what' are you downloading'?' - nothing wrong - ie virus checker kicking in.

try that 'other' site for the 'fix' to a 'data' programme - just Nodd32 spat that out

Nothing wrong with rapidshare and virgin at all.

Just used it get some files, why the scaremongering before a proper look into it?

The title should be edited.
