I think its been a long time since someone has posted this query. I just need to know which is the best download manager out there.

I mainly use DownThemAll now, but need to know if there are others which are better, if not good.

I also need one that supports download by torrents. Or is uTorrent the best? What about Internet Download Manager?

If you are luking for Torrent Manager stick with uTorrent it is lightweight and fast
and for DM, u can go for FDM or DAP.

I have using flashget for past many years. the best free download manager. i tried using orbit but felt that it is not as flexible as flashget. no ads, light on system, customizable in many ways, can be used for torrents as well...and not to mention it is fast.
