Internet Download Manager v6.07 Build 14 | 4.73 MB
Today's Internet user downloads large files on a
daily basis and although most browsers have in-built download managers,
not all of them can cope with our requirements. This is why some of you
need a separate download manager that supports pausing and resuming plus
a number of other tasks.
Internet Download Manager is one of the
applications that claim they can do even more than that, being able to
accelerate downloads by up to 500 percent. Is that so? Probably not so
much, but it's still a great app because it can restart interrupted
downloads and integrate into a large number of browsers, including
Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera.
You won't
find the installation process more difficult than eating a cake, which
in most cases is pleasant too, as you have nothing to do than to press
next and pick the installation folder.
Internet Download
Manager's interface is clean and easy to use, with big and stylish
buttons that let you control the files you're downloading. It is a great
organizer too, as every single download can be be moved into a
different folder, depending on its type. Plus, it has a rich settings
menu where you can change the way the program handles certain file
formats or the default download locations.
Our testing allowed us
to try the quick update function too, which worked like a breeze and
basically updated the application with just a single click. It all came
down to choosing whether to update or not, and the whole job was done by
the integrated updater which automatically downloaded the new files and
installed them on the computer.
After several days of using
Internet Download Manager, we came down to a single conclusion: it's a
must have. Although you have to spend about 25 bucks for buying the full
version, this application will come in handy especially for those who
use to download large files on a regular basis.
