What's the best freeware downloader in 64-bit W7 HPE SP1?
It needs to be able to resume transfers (unreliable Internet
connections), secured connections, etc. I used to use GetRight and Orbit Downloader, but they are very old now. Thank you in advance. -- Note: A fixed width font (Courier, Monospace, etc.) is required to see this signature correctly. /\___/\ Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.home.dhs.org (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ / Please nuke ANT if replying by e-mail privately.

I use the extension DownThemAll while using Firefox. You can configure the number of segments as well as the the number of concurrent downloads as well as assign a speed limit (throttle) if the number of downloads interfere with stuff like VOIP. Yes it has the option to resume downloads. The preferences (configuration options) are quite extensive. |

I forgot, it even has a scheduler for those with restrictive ISP's who only allow unlimited downloads during specific times. |

I just want a general file downloader. :/ -- Note: A fixed width font (Courier, Monospace, etc.) is required to see this signature correctly. /\___/\ Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ / Please nuke ANT if replying by e-mail privately.

Take a look at XDM (Extreme Download Manager). A few quirks, but lightning fast and integrates with just about any browser. http://xdman.sourceforge.net/ |

A few quirks, but lightning fast and integrates with just about any browser. http://xdman.sourceforge.net/ It doesn't really have a lot of features like in GetRight and Orbit Downloader. -- Note: A fixed width font (Courier, Monospace, etc.) is required to see this signature correctly. /\___/\ Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.home.dhs.org (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ / Please nuke ANT if replying by e-mail privately.
