Hi. I love using your downloader and it's been working great for me. Two minor things I've noticed: (*1) While I have active download, I sometimes accidentely close my browser, the add-on does not not warn me before exiting. It's not a big deal since when I re-open the browser, my download just continues from where it left off. If possible, show warning before browser exit. (*2) During download it show the download speed but I have found that my system monitor is showing a much higher download speed for my network interface. Example: downloader shows 2.2MB/s while sys-mon says it's close to 50 Mb/s. Again, not a big deal, but if you can fix, it would be appreciated. Thanks for a GREAT add-on. CoolCool.

    Stay away. Large downloads spike RAM usage while finalizing, causing the files to fail and your PC to freeze.

    Everytime I try to download anything I got a server error message and I have to manually resume the download because the retry system doesn't even work.
    Trash.

    It works, but... there's no way to use custom download locations, because /Downloads (my default location on Firefox under Debian Linux always is chosen.
    That's a bad habit, because very often I use custom storage locations like USB HD's and especially bigger downloads put a high load unnecessarily on my SSD, which otherwise could be re-assigned completely.
    Furthermore this AddOn seems to be dead, as there was no update since 2 full years... and there are numerous open tickets visible.
    To clarify: I will re-edit this review in _ a n y _ case (dead or alive) and will downgrade it in case of a dead project and no response, so that it becomes at least obvious, that one should consider to remove this more and more function-wise dying thing from Firefox.

    Excellent! It would be even better with an icon for the new Firefox sidebar :)

    This add-on supercharges Firefox's built-in download manager by enabling multi-threading support. With no additional software required and a robust set of options, this add-on is fantastic. Thanks to the developer!

    It's good but fails for very large files, ie 20GB or more. After the download, firefox starts saving it, but it gets stuck halfway.
