- jggube, on 09/04/2008, -1/+8I love the Firefox built-in download manager. It does the trick just fine.
- motang, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7Surprised they didn't mention Opera's as it has built in bittorrent support.
- Zippo, on 09/05/2008, -0/+1Ugh, that was the one thing that pissed me off about Adobe Creative Suite 3... it quietly installs Opera and then Opera took over as the default application for torrents.
I have Transmission for a reason - bugger off Opera.

- ElBeh, on 09/04/2008, -1/+1I've used all of these except for Fre Download manager, and from my experience DTA! wins. Firefox's built-in one works, but doesn't really have a lot of features if you want to go beyond basic downloading. Flashget is fast, but terribly unreliable and a bit unstable. Download Statusbar is useful when I'm opening a document in Word or a spreadsheet and I don't want the deafult download manager to come up as a popup,or when downloading small files due to its easy-access, but I wouldn't go for it if you're downloading a large file, DTA! has everything and is mad fast.
- clsslc, on 09/04/2008, -0/+1Download Managers are so 1998 ...
Seriously though, the reason download managers came about was to manage large downloads across dial-up connections so you wouldn't lose everything when your connection was interrupted, as it often was. This stuff is just redundant nowadays. - estvir, on 09/05/2008, -1/+1What a retarded list. Does the statusbar extension really warrant another entry? And Firefox's built-in download manager is hardly worth mentioning, Opera's is better than it if you really want to list a browser one.
Replace one of those with one of the millions of others like Leechget. Also, FlashGet was better when it was JetCar. - nubtard, on 09/05/2008, -0/+1People still use download managers?
- topdon23, on 09/05/2008, -0/+1"Internet Download Manager" is perfect for my Rapidshare downloads, otherwise the built in download manager for Firefox and Chrome is enough
