I mean when I didnt know about using a DL manager and it became a hassle so I gave up on them and just started using newz, nothing personal, I just got tired of the headaces. I guess you learn something everyday :D

Might go back and give them a try again....if I can find my list/favs/sites....lol

I use my internet service provider, charter cable.
First I just find out which newsgroup has the image I want then I connect to that group and download my files.
I pay nothing extra and have always found the group I was looking for.

Download managers are useful if you want to queue a large number of files, even if you have fast broadband. Some sites will only allow you to download 2 files at a time. With a download manager you can queue them up to download whilst you sleep or are out.

my favorite one ever was simply called &#39;Internet Download Manager&#39;.
I don&#39;t even know if they make it anymore.
