Star Downloader is a download manager with the added bonus of features to
speed up your downloads.
Transfer speeds are improved by splitting a file into separate parts and
downloading them simultaneously.
It also searches for faster mirror sites and downloads the file from there,
if available.
The resuming of downloads is supported, and it can be integrated with all
common browsers (Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera and Mozilla).
Downloads can be viewed in categories - including active, paused, scheduled
and queued - and the download history can be viewed for the past 24 hours, seven
days and 30 days.
A built-in zip utility can unpack compressed downloads, and files can be
installed from within Star Downloader.
Multiple downloads are supported (simply specify a maximum number), and you
can perform scheduled downloads, and connect/disconnect automatically.
It has an extremely easy to use interface, with colourful buttons and a
logical layout. It also looks good and performs extremely well.
Version 1.45 has Firefox 1.5 support and Internet Explorer Toolbar for fast
searching.
