Cons
movies will not download, so what is the point. i may figure out a way, but so far watching movie or copy url will not work. DO NOT USE CNET. ADWARE ADDED on most all unless it has a direct download link. ABSOLUTELY NO HELP ON SITE.

FLASHGET IS CLEAN, CNET BUNDLES ADWARE WITH IT
jackuarsJune 22, 2014
Pros
1. Clean interface 2. Categorized downloading 3. Website manager 4. Resources detector
Cons
1. Doesn't work on Chrome (extension not in chrome store) 2. Seriously needs updates
Summary
HAVEN'T YOU KNOWN THAT CNET STARTED BUNDLING SOFTWARES WITH ADWARE? Whenever an "installer enabled" icon appears ON the Download button, it means CNET will bundle adware along with the product. Download Flashget from it's homesite, and it's a clean installer.
The best of his kind!

shaughn72July 30, 2012
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.

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.
This software is no good for Mozilla Firefox 11 users.

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.
This update is no good.

armorjanOctober 1, 2011
Pros
Has good features; Speed limit, elegant interface, speed limit, export/import downloads ... etc
Cons
Poor interface; Most features (e.g. speed limit) are not accessible from any menu! Couldn't find schedule feature Settings windows font is very uncomfortable and can't be customized
