    Rapidshare down for at least 2 days

    Just wondering if anyone knows if Rapidshare.com has been down longer than the two days I've noticed, today and yesterday?
    Confirmed it both days on downforeveryoneorjustme.com

    I thought rapidshare went down more than a year ago?

    Yep, pretty sure Rapidshare got squished last year some time.

    So, in answer to your question, yes it has been down more than the two days you noticed...

    From Wikipedia

    RapidShare was an online file hosting service that opened in 2002. In 2009, it was amongst the Internet's 20 most visited websites and claimed to have 10 petabytes of files uploaded by users with the ability to handle up to three million users simultaneously.[1] Following the takedown of similar service Megaupload in 2012, RapidShare changed its business model to deter the use of its services for distribution of files to large numbers of anonymous users and to focus on personal subscription-only cloud-based file storage. Its popularity fell sharply as a result and, by the end of March 2015, RapidShare ceased to operate.

    Well.....
    Thanks for the replies.
    I was sure I'd downloaded things more recently than that, but that goes hand in hand with my memory these days. I'm sure (now) it was rapidgator, I was thinking of.
    Thanks again!
