    Hmm, I do notice Leechget trys to hold the download at a high speed refuseing it to go down...firefox's download manager would shift up and down alot in speed. I am downloading GTA1 free from rockstar games at 385kb/s at a solid rate. Sometimes goes slighty higher if anything.


    btw, I also used the "FlashGot" Extention for Firefox browser. When you click a download link.. you can move the check to "FlashGot" and it will start useing LeechGet, FlashGet, or whatever accelerator you use. (it supports about 4 of them)

    This program has changed since I last used it and works much better. coo

    i think they all are about the same.. Leechget shouldnt have spyware tho.
    I'm scanning with latest AdAware SE build..plus latest def file.
    i'll note back if it does. (never know..)

    The last version of FlashGet I kempt on my computer long was 1.4. Ever since the adware/spyware? that comes w/FG isn't for me. Don't miss it with Net Transport 1.87.258, does everything FG did. Chinese sites included.

    I've been waiting for someone to mention the spyware thing.

    As I said earlier in this thread, I'm using Flashget 1.60.
    I've scanned it with every anti trojan and ad/spyware scanner I could lay my hands on.
    It came up clean every time.
