Internet Download Manager is a full-featured package that handles
downloading tasks with aplomb. It conveniently integrates into your
browser, even if you use Mozilla or Opera.
It automatically
sorts incoming files by file type and puts them in the appropriate
folder. Most importantly, it supercharges download speeds (it doubled
ours). Its windowed interface is clean and easy to understand. Power
users can take advantage of the command line interface to resume file
transfers, schedule downloads, connect through dial-up, or log on to
password-protected sites. Experienced users also can limit the number of
connections, the download speeds for specific sites, and even create an
exception list to block specific, user-defined sites.
Other
features include automatic virus checking and the ability to download
all files linked to a page. The new version has a Web spider that can
analyze a site and retrieve, for example, all the images on it.
Internet
Download Manager strikes us as a natural choice for users in need of a
trusty transfer tool. Version 5.11 build 5 added FLV grabber that can be
used to download videos from YouTube, Google Video, MySpaceTV, and
other popular sites.
