Hi im looking for a download manager for ffox that has resume, sick of **** not finishing and being corrupt due to dc etc while I sleep , just had it happen to Kubuntu have flashgot but that seems to be more to link external manager to ffox...

Thanks
J
 
I use Free Download Manager. It's an external program but the latest version installs a plugin that automatically integrates it with FFox. (which makes FlashGot unnecessary)

Just remember that although these download managers give you the option to 'resume' a download, it does not mean that it will always work. The server (where the file you want to download is hosted) must support the resume function.
Luckily when you download the file with FDM, the dialog box will tell you while downloading, whether 'resume' is supported or not.
 
I like Download Statusbar, but that's ikind of a different thing...
 
Free Download Manager ... thirded ... and you can use it to download torrents on the side as well ... but I don't use it for that cause then you have to allow uploading of the torrents ... and I run up my gigs as it is.
