GetSmart is a download manager that supports Multi-Connection downloads. With Multi-Mirror search it can download different parts from these mirror servers simultaneously. It can 'act as proxy' to serve multiple clients. It can also works as a Daemon.

Features

  • GetSmart will split a file up to 6 parts (default:6 but can be increased from configuration) and will download them simultaneously. For jammed connections this will increase the speed by up to 5 times! (instead of having one connection downloading the file, you will get as many as 6 connections (or more), each downloading a different part of the file).
  • It will count the time where no data arrives (timout) and if it passes a specific time, GetSmart will abort and resume, without quitting the FTP - this will result in another speed increase.
  • It has special hammering system for those busy sites - up to 5 tasks which will hammer a site.
  • Advanced users can see a console which shows what really is going on in the FTP/HTTP terminal.
  • Whenever resuming a file, GetSmart will compare the last bytes of your local file to the file on the server to insure that the local file is right and not corrupted.
  • GetSmart will use tray icons, and will show a download progress as a slowly filled tray icon. When finished it will not pop up messages disturbing you, it will flash and wait untill you double click it.
  • GetSmart supports mirrors. For any download you can add mirrors, but GetSmart can even FTP search for mirrors automatically. It will ping them all and find the fastest.
  • It can catch clicks from the clipboard, which allows starting downloads easily.
  • It will have many more options soon.
