[QUOTE="The_King, post: 961835, member: 88497"] The first Download manager I used was Getright. Probably the Grand father of all Download Managers. GetRight was one of the first to able to pause and resume downloads, download from multiple servers to speed up download time (segmented file transfer). Something almost unheard of at the time. You youngin's don't know the pain of downloading a windows ISO through your browser and at 99% have your internet connection go down. :eek: Not sure why the last release was 2011. I would use it today if they kept updating it regularly and it supported W10. Used Flashget after but updates also stopped in 2012. At the moment I don't use any, all my downloads just sit in the abyss that is my Downloads folders. [/QUOTE]
