Generally found it far more useful than the other DL managers I tried. Their complexity added nothing useful for me. I loved being able to drag links into the DL mgr window to DL. Could have a few more features for me. Control-click did not work for PDF's (maybe works for others?). I would like to be able to (optionally) select the DL folder for each new DL I drag to the window. Nice program, though. Excellent at what it does and fast.

I was searching for a free small and robust dl manager to run it from a remote pc . WackGet installation is as small as a jpg image , fast and robust . I prepare my URL list from my home PC and then I simply hit Ctrl-V from the remote pc (w WackGet) and bingo ... Doesn't have import list but Ctrl-V works fine . Yes I'm still using GetRight but WackGet works fine in simple cases , doesn't asks you money , and never let you down ... Be careful for the first time installation to set up maximum number of downloads.
