Download Accelrator Plus : A must have

[Ashwin Saxena]

Here is my review for world known DAP

The newest DAP is out and a must have for all downloaders. Cool and fast. Whats new :-

Look:-
Yeah I like DAP for its easy interface and cool look. But its look haven't changed much.
Interface is easy to learn for newbies.
I think the look of this D/M is better than Flash Get.

File Rating :-
While downloading a file you can see its rating, alternate links and much more information.

Speed :- Yo! Faster than a rocket. Even in my 56 kbps connection.(Download speed 7 kbps in night)
___________________________________
Cons:- This software is like trasure for me but have cons.
1.) Adware in Free version.
2.) No skin support in free version.
3.) Very Expensive!!!

Thats all. I am waiting for yor comments.

U can also try Free Download Manager. Its free with lots of features. (being a free version).

 

[theraven]

apart from the fact that u'll get flamed cuz DAP has spyware. .

Yup that's a good one.FDM is better than DAP. DAP sux it has spywares and it is resource hungry. There is already a thread on d/l managers runnung.

I used Download Accelerator for 7 years. Till I discovered Free Download Manager.

Now, Download Accelerator is in the bin, where it belongs.

Get FDM here - *www.freedownloadmanager.org/

raven:
dap 7.4 is spyware free.
microsoft anti-spyware and ad-aware doesnt detect it

 

[gxsaurav]

DAP 7.4 has adware, just use Norton anti virus 2005 & U will see

 

[Biplav]

yes saurav the "free"version of dap has ad-ware not "SPYWARE".
DAP USED TO CONTAIN SPYWARE IN THE EARLIER VERSIONS. BUT THE LATEST, ACTUALLY ALL BUILT ON 7.XX do no more contain spyware.
yes its Ad-ware coz its free, not spyware.

FlashGet 1.65 is the best.

Next Comes DAP.

[gxsaurav]

I m using the DAP 7.4 full version & Norton 29095 said, that the file dapie.dll & npdap.dll are adware.dap

 

[mario_pant]

hey... i used to have the same thaughts about DAP.... but 4 years b4...... i WOKE up soon as my "ancient" norton ativirus also classified it as adware/spyware(ver5)....
now i use MassDownloader and NAV2005 FULL(both)....

DAP used give me a LOT of corrupt downloads!!! i gave it up on DAP when it gave me a Corrupt download of 80MB!!! i was just up in flames..... that too on my silly 56kbps connection....duh.....

FlashGet 1.65 is the best.

Next Comes DAP.

I'd recommend that better than DAP...

very true
DAP ia resource hungry

 

[navjotjsingh]

Even Free Download Manager does an excellent Job. Fresh Download is also worth trying - its latest version even compatible with Opera and Netscape 8.

Both are freeware.

Hey man DAP is an adware. Atleast My KasperSky thinks so. And I agree.

Why don't u use Leechget. That's the best.

 

[Charley]

Why don't u use Leechget. That's the best.

Its suitable if u dont have 100's or more files to d/l at the same time. No spyware and ad free.

 

[_mAkA_PoUdEl]

Man if u would download 100 of files at a time(condition u r using Dialup) ur connection will be near to dear. What would u do then.
