Download Manager?

ForYouToSee · Post by **ForYouToSee** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 9:09 pm

Is there a way to download videos by using a download manager like GetRight?

If there is, please tell me because some of the videos are large and I can't stay on the Internet for a long time.

I don't know of any real download managers that work, but I hear the Opera browser will let you resume local links if you get cut off partway through. I haven't tried it, though. ^_^;

Tried it, works like a charm.

I use Opera for browsing and Opera and GetRight hand-in-hand for obtaining QuickTime trailers...

But, yeah, Opera resumes broken downloads. Really good for big files, especially on dialup or if you're limited on time.

I got Opera, ^_^, and it works great, but I can't log in and I can't get it to work with GetRight.

Can I ask where I can get this Opera? I have dailup, and jack amount of time, so I really need it so that I can download vids that are bigger than 5 mb.

I think the website I was given was www.opera.com or something similar. Try a google search for 'opera download' or toss in the word 'manager' or 'browser.' I hear it turns up pretty quickly. >.>

I didn't check the link to see if it worked, so it didn't take long to type up. ^_^;;

Well, the link was fine, and I'm downloading it as I type this. So, thanks again.
