Publisher's description of Star Downloader Pro
From Star Downloader:Star Downloader accelerates your downloads by splitting files into several parts and downloading them simultaneously. Speed is increased further when it chooses the fastest mirror sites. You may automatically resume broken downloads if your connection is lost or if your computer accidentally shuts down. With the scheduler, you can download files at certain times of the day. Star Downloader also may automatically connect to your ISP and hang up upon completion of downloads. An advanced category system helps you organize and manage your downloads, and an integrated unzipping utility can automatically unzip and install downloaded files. Star Downloader also integrates with your antivirus program to automatically scan files upon completion of the download. Star Downloader supports FTP, HTTP, and proxy, as well as support for more than 50 languages.
Version 1.52 features integration with Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox.

Version: Star Downloader Pro 1.52
"One of the single best download manager I have ever used."
Pros: Great speed increase, this product will definately increase your downloads ALOT. Browser Integration - It works with many different browsers including IE, Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, Avant, MyIE2, and a few more. The download manager also has a self extracting utility built in (you never need to use winzip to open a download again!) and can auto install your .zips if you choose to let it.
Some of the other people were arguing that the download manager is too good at times which is not the case, because if star downloader ever accedently catches a download, you could turn off the browser integration. This is a feature I never see in other download managers.
Cons: Lightning Download is a bit faster. (Don't get confused though, Star Downloader is much better in terms of featurs and generally overall.)

Version: Star Downloader Pro 1.52
"Has No UNINSTALLER! Cheap, crappy, crappy crappy."
Pros: I like nothing about it, it cost me a heck of a lot of time.
Cons: It simply does not run well on any of our computers. Brain lock, missed downloads. Darned dialogues can't be removed from the right click lists. Just lousy all the way around.
