Hi,

Looking for a good easy to use download manager. Needs to be spy/adaware
free etc.

Any suggestions please?

Many thanx.

Ronnie.

Now, now, Karen be nice. Maybe [faded] is new to the group and did not
realize that this is ALT.COMP.FREEWARE. We ACFer's are a peaceful group
and always try to show others the errors of their ways by extending the
Olive Branch of Peace. ;)

Apologies, BarryTone. I was getting a bit exasperated. I tried reaching
for the be-nice pills, but came back empty. (No direct-download link for
them, either...)

If you can't find any be-nice pills, go ahead and smack the bastards
upside the head with the Olive Branch of Peace!

Sorry, but it was freeware until some months ago.
Now it seems to be shareware, but it has no limitations, so it is most like
a freeware than like a shareware.

IIRC it has a nag screen asking to buy it.
Net Transport's life on my box was of about 30 seconds.

It's shareware but has no limitations.

Most shareware software have time a limit

I am really sorry, I probably have an old version.
It's sad that it is now shareware... It was the best free download manager
:(
 

The shareware license itself is the all-important limitation.

If it was a good program in its last freeware incarnation, then a
recommendation for that freeware release is most welcome here.

Agree, and unfortunately common, when the developer changes course.

Still, keep in mind that most of us are satisfied to use a particular
version of a program, even when it is not the latest, just so long as
it meets the req that it is freeware.

And of course, that it is good in its own right. On this, btw, the
reports in ACF give testimony that the Net Transport freeware releases
have been well worth giving a run.

I don't think you'd necessarily have to use the past tense. Unless you've
tried another free download manager which you've decided to be better than
the LFW of Net Transport...
