Hotfile.com Hourly Limit Bypass Hack So youve found yourself wondering why you can bypass the wait timer downloads, but havent had any success trying to bypass the HotFile.com hourly limit? This guide is for you. We will quickly go over how the HotFile.com hourly limit works, and then explain how to bypass the HotFile.com hourly limit. First, you will need to consider this. HotFile.com uses two methods of limitation for downloading on their site. The first, the download wait timer, requires you to wait a small number of seconds before the download link becomes available for submitting. This is controlled by JavaScript, and can be bypassed using my guide Hotfile.com Timer No Wait Hack. I will let you know that, again, like the last guide I did, Hotfile.com Timer No Wait Hack, this again is not a simple install-a-plugin-and-push-a-button fix. This guide is written for educational purposes for those users who want to understand how HotFiles hourly limit system works, and how it can be bypassed. How to Hack HotFile.com for Dummies The Hourly Limit enforced by HotFile.com does not use solely JavaScript, but relies on server side protection and enforcement of the time limit which is displayed to you in your browser. Instead, HotFile actually records your internet-level IP address, storing this inside of a MySQL database, associating the IP address with the number of files youve downloaded in the past 60 minutes. The Ifthen Logic of HotFile.com Using HotFile.coms own logic against itself. Whenever you request a file, the sites logic checks the database for the number of files downloaded in the past hour against your internet-level IP address. If the limit has not been hit, you are taken to the download page, and asked to wait through a JavaScript timer. If the limit has been hit, you are shown an hourly timer with a much greater value. This hourly timer (unlike the standard wait timer) is a passive timer. A passive timer does not actually run any logic programming behind it, as even if you forced this timer to display a different value, you would still not be able to change the core values that actually matter to the page logic, stored inside of the MySQL database. While we may not be able to change the databases contents itself, what we can change is our IP address. It is assumed you are already familiar with your internet connection setup and have a decent understanding of the layout of your path to the internet. Just give me the recipe! Im gonna bake me some downloads! Step 1: Get your IP First of all, before you reset your IP, lets find out what it is, so you can see if you have successfully reset your IP or not. Please visit my IP address detect page here, What is my IP? to get your current Internet Level IP Address. Once you have it, please make a note of it. My Internet Level IP Address Direct Detect script will immediately show you your internet-level IP address, the one that matters. Even if we succeed in resetting our IP address, we will still need to get rid of the tracking cookies and server sessions which are stored locally, so that HotFile.com cannot tie our new IP back to our old one via the same cookies or sessions. Step 2: Clear all tracking files and data. For FireFox users (v3.5 and newer) Tools > Clear Recent History, and select at least the appropriate time period from when you first went to HotFile.com since last clearing your cookies / temporary internet data. From FireFox go to Tools > Clear Recent History Next select at least what is circled in red; Clear at least the cookies and sessions. For the time range (selected in blue) choose appropriate period of time that has passed since you last hit your hourly limit. Take note if the day has changed in the past hour since you first hit your Download Limit. For example, If you hit your hourly limit just before midnight, and its 12:42 AM now,that was in the last hour, this would actually be yesterday as the day has now changed since midnight, so select Yesterday from the time period, or the equivalent chronological coverage period. For Internet Explorer users, From within Internet Explorer (as of Version 8), go to your Menu at the top right of the screen and select Safety > Delete Browsing History. From the Menu, navigate to Safety and then select Delete Browsing History. Next a new window will spawn prompting you for exactly what options you want to clear. At least check Temporary Internet Files and Cookies. If HotFile.com is bookmarked as a favorite by you then also select the option Preserve Favorites website data. Select at least the options circled in red. If HotFile.com is marked as a favorite, select the option circled in blue as well. Step 3: Reset your Internet Connection, get a new Internet Level IP address. In order for you to get a new Internet Level IP Address, we will force a new IP assignation via DHCP by resetting your internet connection. For users with: Dialup Disconnect from the internet / Sign off, and redial the network connection. DSL (ADSL/SDSL) Unplug your DSL modem, and your Router. Wait at least 10 seconds, before plugging the power in to your Modem, and then the router. Cable Modem Unplug your Cable Modem, and your router. Wait at least 10 seconds before plugging in the power to your Modem, then your router. FiOS Unplug the power to your FiOS modem, and your router. Wait 10+ seconds before refitting the power connectors. Some modems / routers have bigger electrical capacitors, thus hold a charge for longer after being unplugged. You may have to wait an upwards of 10 minutes for the capacitors to drain before you can plug it in for a cold boot. Step 4: Resetting your Local Network connection (if necessary) to repair your Routing from Lan to Internet via NAT. After doing all the above, you still *may* need to reset your IP lease from your computer itself. Well go ahead and do it anyways for the sake of learning and becoming familiar with it. For Windows We will use the CMD prompt window. To open the CMD prompt in Windows For Vista / Windows 7, type in CMD from the start menu and press enter. Now type in the below commands in the CMD window that has since manifested itself. For Windows 2000 & XPGo to Start (menu) > Run > CMD. Then type in the following commands to the new command prompt window which has opened. ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig For Linux Users From a Shell use one of the appropriate commands based on the distribution (aka Distro, Flavor, Brand, etc.) of Linux you are using. RedHat Linux command to reload or restart network (login as root user): service network restart OR /etc/init.d/network restart Debian-based Linux command to reload or restart network: /etc/init.d/networking restart Ubuntu-based Linux user use sudo command with above Debian Linux command: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart Step 5: Power to Self Test Now, lets check that you did get a new IP address. Go back to What is my IP? to check if your IP has changed. If your IP has changed, great, pat yourself on the back, go back to the HotFile.com download page (* See notes below) and away you go. If it has not changed, make sure you didnt skip a step, or forget to reboot one device but not the other, etc. If you have done all this, please see the below notes in the case your setup is an exception requiring an additional specific workaround. Troubleshooting and notes Still having trouble? Things Worth Noting: It is common for newer Cable/DSL modems to include routers built into them. A good indication of having one, is if your Modem has Multiple Ethernet connections on the back, typically three to five Ethernet connections total. Many modems which come as part of a VoIP/Internet/TV package will come with Router for the internet, a VoIP transcoder, and TV signal parser, all in one box. Please note that these boxes typically have routers built into them (as indicated by the above stated multiple Ethernet connections), as well as they often contain decent sized battery backups, in order to provide sustained power to the VoIP phone line transcoder as well as to the Internet router in the event of a power loss. You may have to wait a substantial amount of time for the power to drain out completely if you have one of these all-in-one modems due to the huge size and capacitance of the battery. Each ISP is in control of their own network, and they fully control how often your IP changes, if ever, even if you disconnect / power off your modem and or router for an extended period of time. It could change each and every time you disconnect / reconnect, once every so many days or hours, or even months. If you have a Static IP (often a paid upgrade), then your IP should never change. *Make sure you dont refresh the page, but rather retype the URL or copy and paste it back in. Refreshing the page typically re-posts the data, and could re-post any session information or identifiers transmitted via the URL. Happy HotFile Hacking! Source: Tanner Williamson – Welcome!
