"pain to deal with!!"
"pain to deal with!!"
Pros
doesn't take over the browser like other download managers tend to do.
Cons
i have to battle the program when it comes to a specific download folder. after setting the download folder I want it works fine for a while. Then it suddenly begins dropping the downloads into a different folder and I have to go back in and reset the download folder. Then its fine for a while and then switches download folders again. I dropped it in favor of another manager.
Summary
too much hassle for it to be worth it.
"Not bad overall, could use some improvements."
"Not bad overall, could use some improvements."
Pros
Fast, integrates well with IE 8.
Cons
Very limited options for download path.
Summary
I've only been using this for about a week. So far it seems to work fairly well. It will hog bandwidth if you don't limit it, but I guess that's OK if you want to get maximum download speed. My biggest gripe is that it insists on making a default download directory "C:\Downloads\". You can change the drive it saves to, but if you want it to save anywhere but "n:\Downloads\" you have to change it every time you start a new download.

Pros
There is nothing positive to report about this software.
Cons
Support and Contact tabs on FlashGet website are full of broken links. The email address to contact FlashGet is invalid and none of the FAQ and user manual links work.
Summary
Do not waste your time with this software. Find another download manager software.
