Do you use one?

If so, why do you use it? Does it conflict with any other software on your pc?

I'm looking for one but im not sure what to go for,

This didn't look like a proper GW suggestion, so I moved it here to the General Support.

And no, I'm not using any accelerators. Don't they get you banned from sites?

It depends for what purpose you use dl accelerators...

I use freedownload manager for http download, mostly nvidia, but can be openoffice or the like. With some sites, it's the only way to get a decent download...

It's a tidy place to handle dls, resume if needed, etc.

Other than that, I do not try to cheat with p2p soft or community downloads.

I really don't see how that works.
