It’s been a long time since I have used this program. Don’t we need a proxy address to bypass the download limit now? or we still need to use it, which does not mentioned in the guide you posted ---

Thank you for the post! It’s great that more people will know about MEGABasterd. It’s such an amazing program. Pro Tip to add: You CAN run the .bat file in the main folder of MEGABasterd and it runs the application just like an exe does. ---

Some people think that if a program isn’t a `.exe`, it’s not secure. But that’s not true — using the terminal is actually better ---

All proxy lists I found are slow. I have 500Mbps plan, any way to force reset my ip for download to continue? ---

Don’t we need a proxy address to bypass the download limit now? or we still need to use it, which does not mentioned in the guide you posted ## ✅ STEP 1: Get Free SOCKS5 Proxies (Best for MegaBasterd) Here are **reliable websites** that provide fresh, free proxies (update regularly): ### 🔗 Proxy List Sites: 1. **[https://spys.one/en/socks-proxy-list/](https://spys.one/en/socks-proxy-list/)** 2. **[https://www.socks-proxy.net/](https://www.socks-proxy.net/)** 3. **[https://free-proxy-list.net/](https://free-proxy-list.net/)** 4. **[https://proxyscrape.com/free-proxy-list](https://proxyscrape.com/free-proxy-list)** 5. **[https://hidemy.name/en/proxy-list/](https://hidemy.name/en/proxy-list/)** > 💡 **Tip** : SOCKS5 is better than HTTP for MEGA downloads (faster + fewer issues). * * * ## ✅ STEP 2: Format Proxies Correctly for MegaBasterd MegaBasterd expects proxies in this format: ```auto IP:PORT ``` Example: ```auto 185.123.245.12:1080 91.204.14.25:1080 ``` Make sure they’re **SOCKS5** , not HTTP. * * * ## ✅ STEP 3: Add Proxies to MegaBasterd ### 📌 Step-by-step: 1. **Open MegaBasterd** 2. Click on **“View” → “Preferences”** (or press `Ctrl + P`) 3. Go to the **“Network”** tab 4. ✅ Check the box **“Use SmartProxy”** 5. In the box below, paste your SOCKS5 proxy list (one per line) 6. Click **“Save Preferences”** 7. Restart MegaBasterd if needed Optional: - You can also tweak the **number of connections** (e.g., 8–16) in “Downloads” tab for speed boost.
