Download from Firefox using your favorite manager

FlashGot is a Firefox add-on that allows you to customize almost any download manager for use with batch downloads on Firefox.

FlashGot is a free Mozilla Firefox (and Thunderbird) extension that's designed for people who do a lot of downloading. It can handle large numbers of batch downloads with its own download manager. This simple but powerful plugin can even handle batch downloads for many anonymous or redirected download link services such as depositfiles.com, fileserve.com, filesonic.com, hotfile.com, megaupload.com, netload.in, rapidshare.com, uploading.com, uploaded.to, ul.to, zshare.com.

FlashGot is very easy to use, and has lots of customization options that means you'll be able to tweak it just to your liking - you can modify everything from what action takes place when you click a link to what options appear in the FlashGot menu. It also supports a vast number of download managers, which means that you can continue to use favorites like IDM and DAP.

No more clicking multiple links and "Save as" - FlashGot simply scans the page for downloadable links and then you select which ones you need.

    A Must Have For Firefox Users. Anyone who uses Firefox and downloads a lot of software or videos needs FlashGot. FlashGot will take your normal Download Manager and add features. For instance if you normally use a download manager like FlashGet, FlashGot allows you to download media files than FlashGet normally wouldn't. Using FlashGot also allows you to switch back to the default Firefox download manager to down things your other Download Manager couldn't without having to disable or uninstall the Download Manager's plugin.I don't like the fact cookies are sent to the author by default, it makes me question his intent. However this option can be unchecked in the add-ons menu. That is about the only concern I have for FlashGot as it just makes downloading things much simpler and easier. Pros: Adds Features To Your Current Download ManagerCan Download Media Files Other Download Managers Can'tMakes It Easier To Switch Between Download ManagersFree Cons: Sends Cookies To Developer By Default

    Ultimate surfing tool. very easy to use and install for both amature and experienced users. Would like to see a function to enable downloading files with .php extension as it is a very labourious task having to convert the files to a jpg or bmp format, shame there is no facility as more and more files are in the php format Pros: Ease of use Cons: Would like to see an arrow to advance the number of the destination folder
