i did not find it help full and got rid of it, some times the server you are connection to are just slow for one reason or another

i only use download accelerator plus so that it keeps my downloads organised, plus you can resume downloads and switch sites if the server your connected to goes down. I wouldn't say it makes the downloads go a lot faster though. :D

This has nothing to do with K-Lite; moving to Softwareworld...

I'm using dap and notice a little increase in speed enough to make me happy. I have cable. I get 300-400 speed only. Hope that helps.

I use LeechGet, it's free... it scans for mirrors... I set it to not defualt cause i only use it if a download fails with the normal downloader in opera.

acceleraters are bs sorry to say but all they do is pause/resume if your on a dail-up connect

download accelerators are so you can make use of the full potential of your connection - useful if the server you are connected is a bit crappy

i just use them for the resume function
