hello people...i am having a little probem with my broadband conection. I use GetGO Download Manager to download files, when i am using GetGo, my surfing speed drastically drops...but when i use simple windows save from web option...the surfing speed remains...any suggestions for a good download manager.??

Hi,
The download manager must have some bandwidth restriction option which you should enable. What is currently happening is that the download manager is sucking all the bandwidth available.

Moreover all download managers break up the download files into small sgments and open up multiple download paths this results in a faster download, but yes it takes up a large amount of the available BW. So its perfectly ok for a download manager to behave so.
