One of the best download managers for Linux has just received an update

Jul 22, 2013 07:35 GMT  ·  By

flareGet, a full-featured, advanced, multi-threaded, multi-segment download manager and accelerator for Linux, has reached version 1.5-12.

flareGet is one of the best GUI-based download managers on Linux, at this time. This is not a statement made lightly, but some users might object that the full version of this application is shareware.

Highlights of flareGet 1.5-12:

• A new grabber optimized for Youtube.com has been added; • The resume support has been improved; • The browser integration support for all browsers has been included in free version; • The speed limit support has been included in free version; • The support for auto-refreshing of URL and cookies has been included in free version; • Full metalink support has been implemented.

We reviewed flareGet and we've discovered that it greatly integrates with Firefox (it might work with other Internet browsers just as well). It has a huge number of features and it's incredibly fast.

A complete list of changes and new features can be found in the official announcement.
