flashget owns..more options and tis a smarter packet resumer than the rest...when combining speed with intelligience...flashgets the way. if you want just a smart downlaoder and not worried about speed..then go with getright. if you want raw speed..get dap like the guy above linked for you.

Yeah, I though DAP had spyware because it slowed my DL's to a halt, and made the CPU usage soar to 100%. I used to use Internet Download Manager off of http://www.downloads.com but I eventually got problems with CRCs messing up on zip and other files because it downloads from several places at once and combines them. I find the original Windows one to work best for me.

From what I know, Download Accelerator Gold, but I never use any of those proggies. Back in the day, GetRight used to be my fav.
