Orbit Downloader is pretty decent with no ad craps, which many DM's have.

^^ IDM uses a lot of system resources,Whereas FDM is just a small and free tool. (about 2MB)

Free download manager is great. Also Download Accelerator Plus is good but sometimes the download stops in between.

I suggest you go for FDM

Because no one is having that much bandwidth that they can afford to loose for seeing ads.

Go for FDM or Orbit downloader.

y noone suggest DAP??


1. DAP Isn't free. And expensive than IDM
2. It consumes more system resource. AKA Sux
3. It has no good torrent client.

I haven't tried most of the listed ones but flashget gives me speed close to the maximum that my connection supports i.e. 2mbps. so i like it. the interface is also esy to use.
also people should have tried to tell why they like the software, that helps judge based on the pros and cons.

No need of any DM for me. I'm using Opera!! :-D

^^ Opera isnt a download manager, and any download manager would perform better than opera's. Its good for smaller files, and from filesharing sites but for large direct downloads, flashget is the best for utilizing the entire bandwidth to download the large files in short time.

@dheeraj- Hey dude I know what Opera is. I'm not a total n00b.
And if I have any large downloads to make, then it's from torrent sites, and I use uTorrent for that.

I'll try FlashGet anyway.

@dheeraj- Hey dude I know what Opera is. I'm not a total n00b.
I know, I know, I wasnt insulting you or anything, I was just saying that opera's download facility is not fully functional.

Flashget has ads but they can be removed via options.
