GetRight [Downloads Tool]
Tool that allows you to resume downloads that were interupted. Also logs and keeps records of your download history. Extremely useful, especially for large file downloads. The program is limited to servers that support the "resume" function. As most recent browsers support resuming downloads also, its usefulness in this respect has diminished a bit. However the fact that you can establish multiple connections to a single download and thus increase your download speed substantially makes this tool still a must have.
