Hi Eamonn, 

I'll certainly do that. 

I hear good reports of that programme elsewhere too. 

Thanks, 

Tony Sweeney

  Hi folks,

  I was on leave for nearly a  fortnight, so I'm jusst catching up on the
  list now.

  Tony, there's    a very  comprehensive review of Free Download Manager, on
  Blind Cool Tech, from a couple of years back.  It's   done by
  Sean Randle and lasts about an hour or so.

  Log onto
  www.blindcooltech.com

  And  used the find command (CTRL-F,) to look for Free Download Manager.

  Regards,

  Eamonn

  Very good Paul.

  I am now on the FDM site and there's a lot there but what version am I
  looking for and better still do you have a direct download link?

  It may very well solve my download problem indeed.

  Thanks,

  Tony Sweeney

               Hi Tony,

               That's not a problem, when the manager pops up to take control
  of
  the
               downloading file, just before you hit the spacebar on the ok
  button,
  tab
               over to where it says, file will be downloaded to c:\downloads
  and
  either
               clear this box and type in a new path or tab to the browse
  button
  and select
               a folder where you want to have this particular file
  downloaded
  into. Once
               you have done this, tab back over to the OK button and hit the
  spacebar to
               begin the download process.


               Paul.

               That sounds good indeed.

               Now if I want my downloads to go to my documents can I with
  that
  programme?

               Hi Tony,

               You should use a program called "Free Download Manager" from
  the
               website
               called www.freedownloadmanager.org. When installed it creates
  a
               downloads
               folder on the main root of your hard drive, example,
  c:\downloads.
               This
               software takes over control of your file downloads and you can
  be
               sure to
               always find them in the downloads folder after it finishes its
  work.
               Everytime it senses that a file is going to be downloaded it
  pops up
               and
               takes charge of downloading the software or whatever else you
  want
               to
               download at the time. I have used it for years now and its
  great.
               Completely
               free and no spyware or addware.

               As soon as it senses a file download it comes up and gives you
  an ok
               button
               or a cancel button No adjustments are necessary, just hit
  enter on
               the OK
               button and let it complete the download. Should you for some
  reason
               not want
               it to take charge of that particular download then just tab to
               cancel and
               hit enter on it the download will then be returned to the
  normal
               windows
               control.

               Paul.

               Hi Tim,

               Any tips so the system knows that it is a podcast when I press
  the
               apps key?


               In other words I'm getting everything except 'save target as'
  at
               times!

               It's like that the system doesn't know that the link I'm going
  to
               hit after
               the apps key is a podcast.

               Thanks,

               Tony

               Hi Tony,

               Have you tried hitting the  apps key   before pressing enter
  on the
               download link?  Doing it after will be too late  as the
  download
               would have
               begun already.

               It might bring up that context menu where you can choose  the
  saze
               as   option.

               Tim,

               For example I downloaded Audioview and it just went to a
               temporary folder where it played but did not ask where I
  wanted
               downloaded
               to.

               I tried to download a documentary from Mushroom FM and it
               did not ask either where.

               That file just played for a few minutes and then went round
               on a loop.

               I tried to download an album from the Sunday Indo and it
               would not let me although I had the correct code but I could
  listen
               to the
               songs alright!

               It kept prompting me to install the latest flash which I did
               but no joy!

               I hit enter on a download link then immediately hit the apps
               key and go down to 'save target as' and enter but I don't be
  asked
               where I
               want the file saved to!

               I think that say Audioview went to a temp folder something
               like Winamp library.

               Tony

               Do you have a specific example we canlook at?

               Your query is a little generic at the moment  for

               Hi Folk,

               I try and download remembering 'the save as' and all
               of that and firstly I
               am not asked where I want the download to go!

               The last programme I downloaded went to some sort of
               temporary folder but
               othertimes when I go to play a file it may only play
               for a few minutes in a
               loop!

               Someone suggested to me that it could be a jaws
               issue!

               I have jaws 11.

               I also have the latest flash installed.

               Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

               Doing my head in it is!
