WoonzFiles: Search Rapidshare, MegaUpload, Megashares …

]]> WoonzFiles is a great search engine for different types of files. The website lets you search for content on major file sharing networks. These include Rapidshare, Megaupload, Megashares, Badongo, FileFront, and SaveFile. Some of the largest file sharing networks like Rapidshare don’t offer any file search functionality so tools like WoonzFiles are very handy.
