Tried flashget last night, looks like a good program although it was still only downloading at around 7 KB/s. I do like the resume download function though ;)

cheers

516162 2007-01-15 22:10:00 its not flashget thats going slow, either your connection is slow or the server sending the file is slow.

with flashget i normally tweak things a bit. turn off the no-cache and play with the amount of splits. faster net connection you have the more splits you can run. also check the mirror search, that way you may download the file of mulitable servers increasing the speed.

516163 2007-01-15 23:59:00 I was absolutely impressed with wxDFast:

http://dfast.sourceforge.net/

Which I use Firefox integration with FlashGot. I am actually glad I got this one and haven't considered switching to anything else, speeds are more than what I expected and I actually think it's unbelievable, but I'm not questioning it, if it says it's going to finish in 3 minutes, it usually does.

Cheers,
