Reviewed by: CNET Staff
We had mixed but generally positive feelings about this download accelerator. The good news is that Download Accelerator Manager Free Edition accelerates downloads, supports multiple browsers, and picks up broken transfers without a hitch. The bad news is it has a mediocre feature set, even for a freeware program. Download Accelerator Manager Free Edition integrates with all popular browsers, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera, so you only have to click a link to start a transfer. Alternately, you can drag a link to Download Manager's tiny "basket," which floats on top of your other windows. Download Accelerator automatically sorts incoming files into folders by type. It can send cookies if necessary, but it can't handle password-protected sites. It can't schedule downloads, either, but it can shut down your computer after finishing a transfer. The clear, good-looking interface was the deciding factor. Despite slight reservations, we recommend Download Accelerator Manager Free Edition to avid downloaders on a budget.Publisher's description

Version: Download Accelerator Manager 3
Cons: Could not get it to work after configuring it. This download manager is not worth the download. Maybe the Paid version will work. I personally use: Free Download Manager version 2.5, and it works Great. You can download it from this site.
