Well worth a look. It's just a shame about the ads.

Go!Zilla Free

Like Download Accelerator Plus, Gozilla is a file download manager that claims to accelerate download speeds.

Gozilla achieves this by employing a mirror-search database and multi-part downloading, where the desired file(s) could end up being accessed from multiple sources.

In our tests Gozilla didn't make a huge difference in download speeds over our ADSL connection but, like Download Accelerator Plus, it certainly found the fastest sources and kept track of files.

Downloads can be scheduled, and Zip files can be automatically unzipped ready for installation in a single click. A 'leech' facility can also download all the files that make up a website, which could come in handy for beginners in web design.

This free version has adverts, and you may want to opt out of the annoying Weatherbug during installation.

Upgrade to Go!Zilla Plus for $29.95 and get no ads, free upgrades and more.
