SkipScreenis a FireFox plugin which lets users bypass screens and get to the download instantly on file sharing sites like, RapidShare, MegaUpload, zShare, etc..

If you’ve used any of the file sharing sites mentioned above you already know downloading files is not as smooth as it should be. Users have to click on multiple “Download” links to get to the real download page and then wait for up to 90-120 seconds before the download link becomes active.

These ads-filled pages have more to do with getting you to click on an ads or get you to signup for a premium account than to simply offer you a download.

SkipScreen puts an end to all of that! Once you click on the download link of Rapidshare it automatically handles all the pages in between and also skips the hold time of 90-120 seconds and offers the download immediately.

SkipScreen will actually make it look like you are using a free rapidshare accout or a megaupload account as you do not have to navigate through pages or wait for the countdown to finish to download files.

It is useful in situation where you would like to surf the internet in one window and be able to use the other part of the screen for a web mail service or a web app or compare 2 web-pages side by side or leave one Web page open and viewable while you are browsing other websites.

Yes you can definitely toggle between two browser tabs or even 2 browser windows while comparing 2 web pages or achieving different results however I can say Split Browser is definitely more streamlined and does work wonders.

To use Split Browser, you’ll need to have at least two browser tabs open. Once the add-on is installed to your Firefox browser it adds a new option to the Firefox menu called as "Split" as shown below.

To split your browser window into two, you would need to click on "Split Current Tab to" and select the position of the panes i.e. Above, Right, Left or below. By doing this your two tabs are now merged into one, with the screen split between the two of them as shown below.

There is no Limitation to the number of windows you can open inside your window or you can say Split Browser does give you the option of splitting your Firefox window as many times as your systems memory can support.

To download the Add-on click here, also check out the "Best Firefox Extensions" list.
