Yep i dislike the way it handles temp files and stitches them together. completely unnecessary i/o thrashing. i dislike that it doesn't clear completed downloads too. though i accept that this is me being weird. main thing is that there doesn't appear to be a way of capping the total download speed....

I am grateful for the advice. :) Still can't get it to work though. :( it is IE 9 i'm using. or at least it is that i have installed. IDM picks up the cookie and works just fine. but i hate IDM. i've done what you said. uninstalled, rebooted. logged in (IE). launched. also logged in, logged out, FDM...

i'm on W7 and still can't make FDM work with ul.to

would very much appreciate some guidance.

when links are behind a simple redirection service such as tinyurl or similar fdm does the following -downloads the source of the redirection page and give it the name of the file being requested -adds the redirected url to it's history it is then possible to copy the redirected url from the history...

i think i speak for everyone when i say that i would not be in favour of this.

The UI certainly needs a touch up.

after this long without an update people will expect a little jazz

the information keeps disappearing from site manager. my logins for RS basically. it just keeps disappearing. i'm wondering if it's a bug or a corruption: somehow i had managed to get two entries for rapidshare one valid for http and the other for https. i deleted the http on with a view to adding t...

fdm works fine with ff9

you have added your password to FDM?

i use FDM from RS premium all the time on W7

that's the badger.

any idea on where it was getting it's figures from?

so the limits seem to be sort of working. it's just the speed estimate that is wrong.
