The program also features Download Video and Audio Panels for Internet Exporer, Chrome, Opera, Safari, Firefox and other Mozilla based browsers that appears on top of a web-player and can be used to download flash videos from sites like YouTube, MySpaceTV, Google Videos.

"This is a must have application"
Version: Internet Download Manager 6.15 build 7
Pros
This software is outstanding. I had tried to use many free alternatives in the past, until I installed this. This app has a military class reliability in terms of taking over downloads and videos from a myriad of file sharing and video streaming services. Although it does not download from Hulu, and some other sites, due to legal issues, it downloads just fine from the majority of popular video services. Also I was able to download from all file sharing services that I use. The speed of acceleration was spectacular as well. I had about 1MB/s with Verizon ISP in Chrome, and now I download at 5MB/s in average. I was never able to achieve such results with any free programs. Also the bad thing about free programs is that they work good, but from time to time. And sometimes they don't work, they crashed, or worked unexpectedly. I never had such issues with this tool. There are other features like site grabber, which I have not tried yet. Surely this is a 5 star application.
Cons
Design is outdated, but I was able to change toolbar to another one with a better look. Also there is no video conversion. You have to install codecs or use free separate conversion tools. It was not an issue for me to worry about.
Summary
Excellent application, very reliable, download acceleration is great. I can not find any replacement for it, this is the only software in this category that works as it should.
