GetRight's performance looks better, however, when you download popular files that live on many servers. In fact, in our tests-run on a 900MHz Pentium III system with 256MB of RAM, running Windows XP over a 56K dial-up modem connection-GetRight took approximately 30 seconds longer to download a 1MB file from a single location than Internet Explorer. If there's only one place to get a file, GetRight offers no speed improvement. Of course, these features help only if you're downloading files that are stored in multiple locations.

GetRight also improves download speeds by checking local-and therefore faster-mirror sites for the file you're attempting to download it segments large downloads and switches to alternate sites whenever a connection slows down or drops.

GetRight can even shut down your computer or hang up the modem once your downloads are complete. From GetRight's main window, you can control batches of download files, schedule downloads for specific dates and times, and organize downloads once they get to your hard drive. In addition to recovering interrupted downloads, GetRight offers a host of advanced features. Read the setup screens carefully, however, or you'll end up installing some questionable programs along with GetRight. Just download and double-click GetRight's small setup program. However, if you want only to speed up your downloads, GetRight won't necessarily help you. If you download large files and don't want to deal with interruptions, then GetRight is perfect. Plus, GetRight allows you to schedule your downloads in advance and works seamlessly with most Web browsers. This software gracefully recovers from dropped Net connections, so you won't have to start downloading all over again when your ISP cuts you off. GetRight is one of the best-known and easiest-to-use of these handy apps, and although its performance is not remarkable, its useful features will certainly improve your downloading experience (download GetRight 4.5d here). If you regularly download files from the Internet, a download manager will save you time and spare you aggravation.
