All modern web browsers come with download capabilities, and while those are getting the job done, they usually fail when it comes to management and advanced features. Download managers like Internet Download Manager 6 add a rich feature set to the system which not only gives you better control over all downloads, but often also improves the speed in which files are downloaded to your computer system. How that's done? For instance by segmenting downloads and using multiple connections to decrease the time it takes to complete it.
The installation of Internet Download Manager is straightforward. An option to select the browsers you want the program to integrate with would have been nice, but other than that, there is no reason for complaints. IDM integrates itself automatically into supported web browsers, the list includes Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Opera, by hijacking the browser's own download tool. The process is fully automated and you do not have to do anything different to take advantage of the program.
Downloads that you initiate are simply handled automatically by the download manager and not the browser's download tool. It displays information about the download, will group the download automatically, and lets you add a description if you want.
