=== you are wrong , this "downPlus" (from this site)is not adware or

it from
the right sites =======

I just started using this myself, and it's brilliant. Very usable,
and just updated to version 1.0.

If Opera is your browser, FreshDownload is still better in one way:
It features a MIME Editor to add/remove the MIME Types/File Extensions in
the Opera plugin, so you can choose which types of files are automatically
downloaded.

But nowhere on their site does it list which browsers it supports. Not a
good sign...

I'm not familiar with this program but it's maybe a free standing utility
that doesn't need to interface or support any browser. It might simply
download files to where ever you instruct it to and then you open the files
with what ever program you chose. I use Flashget and instruct it from a
right click menu with out it interfacing with a browser. I find browser
integration with this program (Flashget) doesn't consistently work for all
file types and I have no problem doing it manually.
