I suggest you get a download manager which supports resume. With previous updates (and on this one again) there's always disconnects, either the CW server's gotten too slow, or your connection has been reset, or other problems. Disrupted downloads stress the CW servers only more!

There's
http://www.gozilla.com,
Download Accellerator,

http://www.stardownloader.com which has no ads, banners, totally free.

Other preferences/utilities are always welcome!

Careful!! Most of those 'download accelerators' have lots of <i>spyware</i>. Seach for "Ad-aware" on http://www.download.com to find and remove it...
