[OT] Good download manager recommendations...?
Hi,
Can someone recommend a good download manager please? Should have at least schedulable downloads, speed control, multiple downloads from same source and resuming.
TIA
Roman
P.S.: I have DSL!!! Yoohooo!

Hi Roman !
¤ I use "Download Express", free for personal use. It has the features you wish, I guess. Quite translatable. Works fine under Win98 SE
Nice ! The world is yours, now ! Glad for you !
* I've too, but only 128 kbds, 'cause these connections are overpriced at my IP currently, and I can't change yet…
Kind regards,
Claude

As I can't live without TC, I would die without flashget (www.flashget.com).
Love that program.

LeechGet is for people liking nice Windows style GUIs and the usual download manager style.
WGET is a command line app for hardcore users and wGetGUI is a frontend for WGET to make it usable for the average TC user as well.![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
So, try out yourself, I don't use them 'cause I am satisfied with Opera.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Hi Roman !
¤ I use it with IE6>>> MyIE2. But in the online manual I didn't see that you can use it with IE only. You may use the IE-cookies, or place its icon in the IE-toolbar - it's that I've read. It should be interesting to test with another browser ( I've not any…)

OK well I won't try download express, as it seems to be for IE only...

Same thing applies here but only for relatively small files. I love Opera (that's not a music taste) but sometimes resuming a cancelled download starts from the beginning. With a prehistoric dial-up connection I just cannot afford to re-download data so I have to rely upon a download manager.icfu wrote:...I don't use them 'cause I am satisfied with Opera.
I know that even a download manager can have a similar problem if a server does not support resuming but at least you get the ability to look for alternative sources with a good download manager. Having said that I probably download 70% of my files via Opera as well. The remaining 30% is huge files where I just cannot take the start-from-zero-bytes risk!

On http://www.metaproducts.com/mp/mpProducts_Detail.asp?id=18\ it says:I didn't see that you can use it with IE only
...MetaProducts Download Express is a small (about 400 Kb) MS Internet Explorer plugin application. Currently it supports Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 and higher.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.
