Yes, I am using this award winning software. Here is the story…I’m a Unix Technical Support Engineer who is still using Microsoft Windows XP due to undisclosed reason. Today, I’m looking for a download manager to download RHEL 5.1 ISO’s. I’ve been a Download Accelerator and GetRight user in the past, but somehow I don’t like them very much since they are just shareware plus having adware in their software.
I’m wikipedia-ing and suddenly came to Comparison of Download Managers page. Without further due, I straight away look for the download managers that can run on Microsoft Windows. As a free & open source software (FOSS) practitioner, my choice is always for FOSS-based software. Hence, I pick Free Download Manager to give it a try. Of course, I’m using the latest version.
And guess what, it looks good to me. Now, I would like to announce that I’m happily using Free Download Manager :) It’s an Also, I really recommend you guys to use it, especially to those who are still using Microsoft Windows for some reasons (company policy, testing, software issue, matter of prereferences etc) like Adli, Fenris, Ayoi, 1337 programmer etc. Owh well, I can’t recommend it to Piju as that g33k doesn’t use Microsoft Windows on his desktop and laptop!
Here I’m currently downloading RHEL 5.1 ISO’s,

Detail on the downloading process,
About Free Download Manager. Yeah, it’s a GPL-based software!
