I can confirm that free download manager is a very good program. I use it and I like it. It supports firefox, but it doesn't integrates in the context menus like it does in IE. However, if you set it to watch for downloads in firefox it takes care of it. I notice that the integration is better with firefox 2.0.0.12 than it was with 2.0.0.11. HTH Negoslav
