Why use a download accelerator? Surely you know how to get stuff without surfing around?

Today 05:10 AM Smurfette I can't believe you're not using P2P/IRC/USENET! You gotta be kidding Smurfette, right? :lol:

Since when is it a better idea to get apps from other sources than the original site or official mirrors? Not talking about cr*cks, s*rials, ks etc., but the app itself.

When downloading this nero update without a download accelerator you get only 15 kb/s if you use a download accelerator you get speeds up to 120 kb/s ;)

flashget is the only one i've ever used and i'm very satisfied with it :)

My USENET download was maxed out all the way through and it arrived with 'extras' too. :)

i like GetRight 4.5d, with "check for newer versions" turned off, but I use Net Transport for special files <wink wink>

to tell you the truth... on broadband.. you see no difference.

yes it does. I have a 4000 kbit/s connection and it really boost speeds for example when you download this nero update from softpedia.
