FlashGet is an application for Windows which helps to make your downloads more accurate and accelerate the data flow. It automates the process and enables working with multiple streams simultaneously.

Functionality

This utility allows you to speed up the information transfer process by dividing files into clusters that can be downloaded in parallel. This prevents the performance of your computer from slowing down even when the Internet speed is low. It is also possible, as with Download Accelerator Plus, to categorize the data into categories, such as movies, music, and so on. You can create folders on your own. Recent versions have the ability to process bittorrent and eMule files. There is also an option to scan the downloaded files for viruses and malware.

Integration with browsers

The program can be integrated with browsers so that it scans the web for downloadable content. The peculiarity of this feature is that you can define the types of files you want to search for by yourself. There is an option to install a specific plugin for the Firefox browser. For your convenience there is a transparent window where you can control the process of downloading. The program itself will remain minimized in the tray, so as not to distract attention.
