for The Bat! users:
here is the useful addition on the topic, . You can transform
> http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/[PROJECTNAME]/[FILENAME]?download
into this
> http://[MIRRORNAME].dl.sourceforge.net/[PROJECTNAME]/[FILENAME]

via just a couple of keystrokes, if you use such a quick template
http://belnet.dl%SUBPATT="1"%SETPATTREGEXP="http://prdownloads(\.sourceforge\.net/[^?\s]+)"%REGEXPMATCH="%CLIPBOARD"

(above is one single line. If it got splitted , pls remove line breaks)

Create this quick template in The Bat!, assign a short handle to it, for
example "SF", and whenever you encounter a link like this
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/poptray/PopTray310.exe?download
copy it into clipboard, then type "sf" without quotes inside The Bat's
new message window and you will get:
http://belnet.dl.sourceforge.net/poptray/PopTray310.exe

P.S this template may look tricky to you if you are not famiiliar with
regular expressions and The Bat's template syntax. Well I belive
learning those is a good investment of time.

a good collection of quick templates for The Bat! is located here

To study regular expressions I recommend you this tutorial
http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html
and concise regex reference http://www.regular-expressions.info/reference.html
or this pdf manual http://www.powergrep.com/manual/PowerGREP.pdf (600KB)
There is a discussion group on googlegroups where you can ask question
on how to build a specific regular expression.
