Hi there!

Nice application.
But I'm against a namechange, simply because 'Free Downloadmanager' indicates and implicates the program to be *free*. You can't seriously make a shareware app out of 'Free Downloadmanager' :D

I'm looking for an alternative to NetTransport at the moment, and FDM is my favourite right now.

Greetings from germany,

Phil

Hi there...

I absolutely agree with Phil. Ok, the name sounds generic, but in the end, thats what it should be. It's the tool for your generic download, simply any download, and it's free... So, it's the right name...

Thanks...

From administration: please, check "Please keep fdm free" thread

Talking about being free, I'm pretty curious about this strings extracted from the language resource file:

How to register
Register
[...]
Not registered
Continue
Register
OLD-LICENSEENTER
OLD-LICENSEKEY
OLD-COPYKEY
OLD-GETAKEY
Cancel
OLD-SPECIFYKEY
OLD-AFTERKEY
OLD-DONTREGISTER

(Thanks to Betaxtreme @ EFB)

If you ask ME, they sound quite like Shareware, or even worse: Nagware!

If the author could speak a good word to us? :)

Bye,
Phil

Hi all,
I suggest FDM to be called: ^FoxDownloader^

:)

People would think its related to FoxMail if it were to be called that... (I just thought of a name for it: DownloadStorm)
