CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

While this program earns a few brownie points for being open source, it doesn't stand out in terms of features among freeware options. To download files, you simply click on the appropriate link in your browser (Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are supported) or copy a link to the program Clipboard. The interface is fairly basic (and even looks a bit amateur) but most functions are easy to find and use. While TrueDownloader includes a basic scheduler to log off the Net after downloading is complete, it doesn't offer batch downloads or even automatic file sorting. During testing, we ran into some stability problems. While browsing a downloaded ZIP file, the program crashed. Overall, while this is an adequate program for downloading, we'd like to see more features in this freeware option.

Publisher's description

From TrueDownloader Developpement Team :

TrueDownloader is a open-source download manager and accelerator with features such as as the ability to pause/resume downloads, simultaneous downloads, and segmented downloads for acceleration. Both HTTP and FTP protocols are supported, and it's very fast. You even can improve it or adapt it to your needs, since it's open source. Some special features such as HTTP/FTP proxy support and ZIP previewing are supported, too. The application flawlessly integrates into Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and FireFox thanks to the Extension Technology.

CNET Editor's Note: The Download Now link will prompt a local download of the Firefox extension. To install the extension directly, open the file using your Firefox browser.
