Well, you need a download manager...

But... Aaaargh!!! my download manager doesn't work withFirefox! They say it does, but where is my Download All menu? How can I handle the tons of mp3, mpeg, jpg files that I want to download?

Motivation

Since I switched from MS Internet Explorer toa serious browser, I've had only one regret: I've been missing theability to handle "massive downloads" through a multithreaded, file splitting download manager.

In IE there was a "Download all with MyNice DownloadManager" menu item, whichdelivered every link on a web page to the download manager, readyto be choosen and downloaded in batch.

There was nothing like this on Mozilla/Firefox,so I decided to build my solution with my own hands... and it workspretty well (at least for me).

Now, after many releases, FlashGot is probably the most advanced form of browser integration for download managers,often better than the native one provided for IE, featuring:

a FlashGot selection command to selectively downloaditems you highlight on the page (even pure textual links!)a Build Gallery command, helping you to auto-generate complete media gallery frompartial ones to download at once all the contents in a serie.Convenient shortcuts and hooks for single downloads, like Alt+Click on a link andautomatic interception of unknown content types, giving you the chance tooverride the default download manager when it is about to start.(more in the features page)Giorgio Maonewhat is it?featureschangelogscreenshotsforumfaqget it! privacy ...stay safer, get NoScript!Copyright 2004-2021 InformAction - All rights reserved
