It helps if we know what you've tried.

Opera (a browser that can replace IE) works for me. Some people have problems with it, but it works fine for me so you might want to give it a shot.

And Firefox is a good free alternative as well that allows file resuming.

Well, if you're on dialup, you MUST stay online. If you disconnect, no download managed can finish it for you.

Umm, no. I can disconnect and reconnect days later and still be able to resume with Opera.

That what us dial-uppers and ex-dial-uppers did...

It took me a while to get Euphoria on my little 28.8k connection back in the summer... Now that I have cable, I just use whatever, but I still do prefer opera cause of file resuming. I am downloading Mandrake linux 9.2 (3 discs) and right now all them have been paused and resumed fine. GetRight is also good only if you're gonna use specific FTP servers or any HTML site.

Opera or Mozilla (widely used in my comp servicing class, I'm the only Opera user) > all!
