While occasionally you'll see little difference, for the most part the technology makes a real impact on performance: it can easily be doubled, and the developers say you can see up to a 5x improvement. This process works by dividing the file up into pieces, and downloading each chunk simultaneously. Then all you have to do is click the 'Start Download' button and the program will grab a copy of the file at the maximum possible speed.
Once installed, clicking a download link in any of these will launch Internet Download Manager, rather than your usual browser 'Save As' window. The program works with all the main browsers: IE, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari, even Mozilla and Netscape. Internet Download Manager is an easy-to-use tool that will quickly accelerate your download performance.
