You can set this downloader to use HTTP or/and FTP Proxy, it supports a batch and a leach download that saves your time and detects automatically an ULR.
The interface is colored and a little bit crowded; it contains also a bandwidth, a file preview and a file properties pane, but you can choose to hide them in order to make it clearer and you have the possibility to change colors as you want. All downloads are saved in the history folder, so resuming or scheduling a download is possible. Once you'll get familiar with it, the interface will be easy to use.
Unlike other good download managers, as FTPRush for example, GetGo Download Manager can increase the download speed up to 500% by splitting a file into many blocks and then downloading it easier.
GetGo Download Manager is a fast and full-featured Internet downloader.
