    Ad/Spyware/etc..Download Managers

    The question is: - do they exist?

    I mean, a free, good, reliable, Adware/Spyware/Malaware/Trojan/ free Download Manager?

    I recently instaled Flashget, made a few downloads with it..and sudently, i hade my I.E (XP SP2 with the latest updates) full of crap, that only with Ad-aware S.E Professional i could remove, still, yesterday i had to recover windows from the well known startup problem "c:/windows/system32/config" registry error.

    Well, is there one? with no spyware, malaware, trojans, ads, etc?

    Thanx

    Realistically..................no


    You decide what you download, what sites you visit.....you cannot expect software to do any more than follow rules that YOU set?

    Well since you need something free that will resume downloads I would recommend swtiching to firefox. It has a download manager, its better than ie and its free.
