tried flashget but have some cons.............

1. many times files get corrupted when there is electricity failure.
2. slow torrent client
3. RTSP protocol is not fully compatible on many streams of it .
4. not working in opera 9.5
5. doesn't supports "on the way split download" .

I prefer IDM (original version) and have been using it since 3 years.............

Regarding your first problem, you can set Flashget to re-download last few MB of data just prior to the power failure, just as in any Torrent Manager such as Azureus.

In Tools>Options, go to the Proxy tab, and there increase the value in the box next to If Error Occurs, Rollback: to any number of Megabytes, expressed in KB. In case of a failure, Flashget will redownload that amount of data prior to the actual poit of failure.

By the way, Flashget also now supports Edonkey/Emule, in addition to being a full-fledged BT manager.

I've been using FG since it was in version 0.8 (known then as JetCar), and it has only gotten better with each succeeding iteration.

Features of flashget:

1. Support for Bit Torrent:mrgreen:

5. Supports resume on most files:)
6. Not hangy, so good for downloading distros:cool:
7. Download sheduling available for using BSNL-500 to its maximum potential:-D

Try KGet or Downloader for X

Open SuSE users - kget is installed by default. Just Press Alt F2 and type KGet
- To install Downloader for X, Open Yast->Software Management. Then search for d4x and install. Source: SuSE Main OSS Repository

Internet Download Manager is the best, it can be incorporated into firefox, and almost downloads anything at a good speed.

I love this software, but I can't use in my computer since it greatly slows it down when I have this software running, I have no idea why. But thanks anyway for sharing.

2.5 years ago was using DAP premium but when used IDM once speeds were betetr than it then shifted to IDM and till now IDM is my No.1

it also supports video capture from youtube, google , metacafe , etc automatically !

the Grabber / site downloader is awesome to load full mp3's of sites :D

Flashget is pretty nice but doesn't help me to increase download speed like Internet Download Manager does.
» Download Internet Download Manager 5.19 Build 3 Free trial Full Version - Schedule, resume and accelerate downloads by up to 5 times - Place77

I don't know how they make exactly,but i experienced these two products and Download Accelerator Plus and IDM was the fastest.
