    A Good Download Manager

    Anyone know of one? I've spent the last couple of days trying to download a couple of iso's and the downloads keep timing out.

    I've looked at a bunch of download managers, but most of them suck ass. I need one that if it loses connection, will save what it has so far and re-establish a new connection to finish the download. Any suggestions? Freeware is prefered since I am on a college student budget.

    Thanks in advance.

              I use Flashget. It's my favorite but I have never seen Re-Get before.
              I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

                      Download Accelerator is the best I have found so far, but I haven't tried so many. And I heard that DA contains spyware so I dont think its your best choice.

                          I like Download Accelerator, Gozilla isn't too bad either.

                              I'm trying that one right now and it keeps failing before it finishes. If there's a way to pick up the download where I left off at, I haven't figured it out.

                                          OK, FUCK reget. It's been working on an ISO for 2 DAYS now! They can forget me extending the trial period to a purchase on their worthless POS program.

                                              Flashget has been trying to START the download for about 5 minutes now. I started a download without a download manager at the same times I started Flashget, and it's at 12% now.

                                              Download Accelerator doesn't work on my machine. As soon as I start it, it crashes.

                                              Any other ideas?
