Important Notice
The methods below no longer works, to download from baidu now, you must have an account. You can try registering using either the link @ https://passport.baidu.com/v2/?reg&overseas=1 OR https://login.bce.baidu.com/?lang=en
You could use google chrome for automatic translation or google translate website on a different browser
It should open a new small window, click on the "Add extension" button
Once the extension has been installed successfully, visit or refresh the baidu page you wish to download from and wait till the page loads completely then click on the small blue bulb icon
It should open a small window and display the name of the file you want to download, fill in the correct answer to the captcha then click "Verify"
Once verified, give a few seconds and it will automatically generate two links. Click on copy [you can use either copy the Glink or Hlink but Hlink mostly doesn't seem to work]
Launch IDM and click on "Add URL"
Paste the link you copied in the previous step above into the box and click on OK
Click on "Start download"
Your download should begin shortly.
Method 2 - Download using Jdownloader2
Download Jdownloader2 @ http://jdownloader.org/jdownloader2 (i'm currently using the jar file as it doesnt require installation just requires that you install Java Runtime Environment JRE first which i already have)
Visit the baidu link you wish to download the required file from, then copy the link from the address bar on your browser
Launch Jdownloader2.jar and click on "Add New Links"
In the window that opens next, paste the copied link into the first textbox, then click on Continue
Jdownloader2 should automatically scan the link for downloadable files
Once scanning is complete, it should display all downloadable files
Click on the play button to begin downloading the files OR if the link contains more than one file, you can right click on a particular file, then click on "Start Download"
You may be asked to enter captcha in order to continue (of course to prove you are not some sort of robot)
Your file should begin downloading shortly afterwards
