jdownloader
I've tried many download managers for rapidshare and megaupload, but i like jDownloader the most.

jDownloader is a free, open-source, platform independent running completely on Java, which means it runs on any OS as long as Java is installed. It can download from rapidshare for both premium and free users. Additionally, jDownloader can work with many "link encryption" sites and can download videos from Youtube, Vimeo, clipfish video and Mp3 Download.

You can also add addons, such as:

-minimize to tray,
-Uqbiquity (from mozilla labs) addon,
-Shutdown - shuts down the system when done,
-Unrar - extract the archive after downloads are finished

jDownloader also suppors themes and has multiple language support.

You can download jDownloader from here.
