Internet Download Manager has a smart download logic accelerator that
features intelligent dynamic file segmentation and safe multipart downloading
technology to accelerate your downloads. Unlike other download accelerators and
managers that segment files before downloading starts, Internet Download Manager
segments downloaded files dynamically during download process. Internet Download
Manager reuses available connections without additional connect and login stages
to achieve better acceleration performance.

Internet Download Manager supports proxy server, ftp and http protocols,
firewalls, redirects, cookies, directories with authorization, MP3 audio and
MPEG video content processing, and a large number of directory listing formats.
IDM integrates seamlessly into Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape, MSN
Explorer, AOL, Opera, Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Firebird, Avant Browser,
MyIE2, and all other popular browsers to automatically handle your downloads.
You can also drag and drop files, or use Internet Download Manager from command
line. Internet Download Manager can dial your modem at the set time, download
the files you want, then hang up or even shut down your computer when it’s done.



Other features include multilingual support, zip preview, download
categories, built-in download accelerator, scheduler pro, sounds on events,
HTTPS support, queue processor, pipelining of ftp commands, html help and
tutorial, enhanced virus protection on download completion, progressive
downloading with quotas (useful for connections that use some kind of fair
access policy or FAP like Direcway, Direct PC, Hughes, etc.), command line
parameters, and many others.
