Excellent app. Small and works just fine. Easy to use. Recommended.

i like this app, the only thing stopping me from using it is a serious bug where when more than 1 download is queued the application starts using all the CPU time. this is not a good idea if you don't want your CPU overheating for no reason.

Looks like it can only download from server port 80. Even via proxy it filters out port number.

I personally believe there's no one to give competition to Portable wackGet in this category.
Surely not this one.Although it is 'good'.

i think it has to be the worst! The first link to a download i tried and it failed.
It can be tricky trying to drag links into the window as well, perhaps dragging them to the system tray icon would be better?

This is an excellant program for downloading large files that take a long time to complete.
Chromium Browsers seem to have a bad habit in my experience of getting halfway thru a large download and just stopping,
this is the perfect remedy.

V1.1.2.4
