Download program questions

I am looking for feedback on download programs. The type that automatically split the download into several pieces and effectively decrease the time necessary to download files. I have tried a few, but most seem a bit high in price for what they do. Any thoughts anybody????

I found a nice one a few weeks ago. Will post back if I find it.

DAP is "said" to be spyware.

This one is, IMO, outstanding.

DAP is "said" to be spyware.

but Spybot Search and Destroy will quickly spot all of the spyware in the free version.As an aside, I like both flashget and DAP.

Download Express is the most popular one:

No adverts and can be bypassed if you want, with shift button.
