[SOLVED] Free Download manager for IE?

Is there a free download manager made for IE? Firefox has theirs, called "Down Them All", which works really good.

When downloading from TechNet, they supply a download manager, called the "Microsoft File Transfer Manager". It's as fast as the one in Firefox is.

I'm juggling between the two (IE & FF) on separate OS's, and IE needs a download manager badly. Of course, there may be one, that's my question.

I use this one. Works 100% in 64 Bit or 32 Bit

I was looking into that one a few minutes ago. When I noticed the requirements, I decided not to post.

Free Download Manager
I'm glad you know for sure it works with 64-Bit.
Is that just the OS or does it also work with 64-Bit IE?

Thanks a lot, davehc. Where I used to live, I didn't really need a download manager, but with this connection, you do. The speed is constantly up & down, the dl manager helps to keep it fast as possible.

I'm thinking of getting regular wired router, that may help, too.

I tried it, it works fine. I started a Linux disc download, it was going to complete in 7 minutes.

And yes, it works with IE9 (64 bit) too.

Thanks again, davehc!

I was going to give you a little warning on the manager, which Cliff has put in his link. It is a little confusing, as it appears to be a different program to the one I gave you., but with the same name. The last version, for example, is not the same number designate as mine, and in the blurb, it says 32Bit only. A lilttle odd??

The page you linked to has an authors link, which is the page I linked too.

I use JDownloader for all my multi-file or large file needs ( http://jdownloader.org/download/index ). It's not 'attached to IE or Firefox but is a separate install. It is a bit tricky to learn to use but I find it works great for me.

IE7Pro includes Tabbed Browsing Management, Spell Check, Inline Search, Super Drag Drop, Crash Recovery, Proxy Switcher, Mouse Gesture, Tab History Browser, Web Accelerator, User Agent Switcher, Webpage Capturer, AD Blocker, Flash Block, Greasemonkey like User Scripts platform, User Plug-ins, and a mini download manager.

I know it works with 7 & 8, not sure about 9, may only be 32-bit also.

I don't know because I don't like it - it adds an extra toolbar and I hate wasted space. More real estate, more real estate!

Huh? Browsers don't need DL managers. Users with bad connections might, but it is not the browser's responsibility to keep track of swamped dl servers or flakey ISP connections, then re-establish a download. My point is don't blame IE for a lousy or lost connection.
