    Check out the firefox plugins. I have one installed called downthemall. Its a great download manager. It is also a download accelerator.

    Very convenient with rapidshare:

    I don't think they have megaupload support yet though. Even with rapidshare, it's not supported in the menu (I don't think).

    Here is the plugin homepage:

    Here is the firefox plugin page:

    Good luck.

          I use kget - I believe it does everything a download manager is supposed to. To get it to work with Firefox you need the flashgot add-on.

              I used to have Downthemall when I was at Firefox+Weendooze, worked every time for me, but ain't yet got that far with Kubuntu to really bother about it yet.

              Seems Kget and Downthemall are dueling
