Yes u can, i do it everyday.
u just need to setup ur download properly. Make sure ur referrer (for flashget, it's under the place u input ur URL) is set to the proper address, which should be:
http://www.megaupload.com/
any other referrer or no referrer will make the download fail, therefore if u just copied the link and shoved it into flashget, it wouldn't work.
then also, under site properties, check the "only create 1 connection for each file from this site" option. this is not important, as the 1st connection will always still work if u don't, but i just find it a bit messy when there are another 20 threads trying to connect every 2 seconds and failing.
i tried that but it don't work i can't get into the library

That's very likely (perfectly likely) because either u didn't setup utorrent properly, like u put on a download limit, or set ur internet connection as 56k dialup or something along these lines. Or that when using flashget, there were more peers at the time or something.
The torrent program generally will not make a significant difference to ur download speed at all, and speed increase features present in download managers such as multiple connections, mirroring and stuff does not work for torrent, therefore Flashget will have absolutely no advantage over utorrent, utorrent being especially designed for torrent should probably be better.
And also, some torrent apps limit ur download speed when u limit ur upload speed. I don't no if utorrent does that, but if it does, then that may very well be ur answer to why it's being slow. Turn ur upload speed to max, and see if there is any difference.
