The rapidshare servers are the reason for this, especially in the afternoon. Firefox displays a high download speed, but the real speed is absolutely low. As you say, other files are loaded smoothly.
To get away of this, buy a premium account or use a premium link generator.
I hate rapidshare for this.
RS never does what you are saying. It's either all or none..
Right now, I am downloading from RS and am having the exact same problems that you are, it's just a quirk in RS, they'll have it fixed soon.
this happens to me on rapidshare too, its their problem for free users i think
You think it's a temporary problem? Therefore it exists too long for me to think this way. This is cleary intended by rapidshare. They want to make money, don't forget that.
