for downloading mp3s that works with explorer (and SP2)... and is free.

getting sick of cancelling downloads when the popup appears as it transfers from temp folder to where i've placed it and i don't notice and keep typing and cancel the fucking thing :evil: :evil:

Re: recommend me a download manager...

yeah that really gave me the sh*ts too when i was using ie6 :evil: . then someone on here recommended mozilla firefox and i've never looked back . you'll never have that problem with accidentally cancelling downloads, and the tabbed browsing is a god-send. :Bingo: that means no more opening up a new window for every bloody site you visit. you can open them all in one browser.

Net Transport is simply the best. And I hate the way it's incorporated into firefox plugin. The program should be left by itself.

I love pages that don't [url=www.slsknet.org]work[/url] too :roll: :P

I personally use FlashGet, it's crap really, but works most of the time.

I don't think getright is free... :unsure: And Hos what do you mean by add on? Net transport starts downloading whenever you click on a link that is of it's file type. It also enables you to downolad everything from a site or o target of any link just by right clicking. And it saves audio files from streams which proves useful :wink:
