I don't prefer GUI's for downloads. Unnecessary use of resources. I use
wget, but if you are on KDE and want GUI, you should try KGet.

I use one called 
aria [in portage]
which works just fine for me, more features than most would need for
day to day uses.

axel is your friend

emerge axel

axel http://url.to.file

Its best accelerator out there in my most humble opinion

no gui as far as I know though, but you can get it working with the flashget plug in for firefox

If you are using KDE anyway, have a look at kget.

If you have a list of a few hundred files to download, KGet give much
better feedback than wget :)

axel for command line - it multithreads your download and allows you
to resume downloads, I use this instead of wget for emerge. Its much
quicker.

aria for gui - havent really tried any others but this does the trick
and works nicely.
