I need a download manager as I have found a site with LOADS of videos on, including DVD rips of Getaway in Stockholm etc. There are 50 something rar files and I cant be bothered to download them all one by one with internet explorer. Does anybody know of a good download manager which isnt spyware etc.

Cheers,

Richard

speedbit's Download Accelerator would be my choice. There's some crackz on KaZaa to remove its adbots;)

Yes, but I'm getting video but no sound. I think I need an AC3 codec installed for the DivX player to use. Anyone know what I need to do? (still on Windows 98 BTW:eek: )

This (http://www.doom9.org/Soft21/Filters/audiofilters.zip) file is ac3 codec and support for multi-soundtrack avis. Unzip it to a directory (c:\program files\audiofilters\ or something) and run the bat file to install them.

I've queued up a few of those movies too, got the JC ones going right now.

I use Getright which I think is virtually the same as DAP, auto downloading is good as well as queuing, it will start the next download when the current one finishes.
