CaptchaTrader for JDownloader

My Anti reCAPTCHA post is by far the most popular post here, proven by Googling "anti recaptcha for jdownloader" itself. However its no longer working since the last reCAPTCHA update, and the author doesn't seem to be progressing either.

Anyway, I was directed to an alternative method called CaptchaTrader (thanks to James). It works by having other users volunteering to type in the Captcha for you while you're away. So its very accurate as its done by real humans instead of some computer program.

To use it:

  1. Register an account in CaptchaTrader. Don't worry, it's completely free.
  2. Head to the plugins page to download their JDownloader plugin. 
  3. Install and restart JDownloader.
  4. Go to Settings > Modules > AntiCaptcha. Make sure that 'Disable automatic CAPTCHA' is not ticked.
  5. You can now start downloading something that requires CAPTCHA. You'll get 100 credits for free to start with. 
  6. Each CAPTCHA will cost 10 or 5 credits. To earn more credits, you can either buy the credits or solve other people's CAPTCHA for 7 or 3 credits each.
  7. You can also refer other people to join CaptchaTrader to earn more credits.
  8. In fact, you can trade credits for cash. However it costs 10000 credits per each dollar.
While it might seem like pointless at first, as you still need to type CAPTCHAs (albeit not yours), you can download through JDownloader while away.

Be warned that if you ran out of credits, JDownloader will keep on retrying until your IP gets temporarily banned. To prevent this, go to Settings > Modules > AntiCaptcha and tick the checkbox 'Disable automatic CAPTCHA'. From here you'll have to enter CAPTCHAs manually until you have enough credits. Then untick the checkbox 'Disable automatic CAPTCHA' to continue using CaptchaTrader.
