I love wget, I love Firefox, and I use Rapidshare a lot. Making a list of files to download from Rapidshare, I used to run the following command a lot:

wget –load-cookies ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/cookies.txt -i url.list

But that was the time I spent an “Oops!” when wget complained with “Cannot open cookies file: … : No such file or directory”, and I couldn’t find my lovely cookies.txt under the profile directory. It seemed that Firefox had improved its handling of cookies by using a simple DB-like file: cookies.sqlite.

So I Googled and found that a lot wgetters were out there desperately complaining about the same issue. But no worries, you dear visitor, since that was the past: you got two lovely options to get your bloody cookies.txt back ;)

1. The geeky way: Practice your German and Python scripting on this blog post.
2. An add-on for everything way: Use this simple add-on to export your cookies in TXT format.

Yepp, that easy!

I am not sure whether it is an _online_ contest or not – hrrr !

Yeah yeah, sure…

Çevrimiçi bir meydan okuma kendisi ama beni pek sevmediler anlaşılan.

Ya sabır, ya sabır…
