Even with a fast broadband connection, downloads can sometimes seem painfully slow. However, with the right download manager, it’s possible to increase download speeds without changing your broadband connection. Multi-threaded download managers split files into several parts, or sometimes download from multiple sources simultaneously. Using such an application will also enable you to schedule, monitor and resume broken downloads, amongst other helpful features. 

HiDownload 7.17 is a multi-threaded download manager that enables you to download single or multiple files from web or FTP sites. Whilst you’re downloading, it attempts to maximise your connection speed whether you’re downloading single or multiple files and you can also use it to stream audio and video files.
