FlashGot for Firefox

FlashGot is an open source add-on, compatible with several Mozilla products, such as Firefox, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey, that transforms any supported download manager application (see below a list) into a download manager for Mozilla products.

Long story short, FlashGot allows users to manage multiple downloads (videos, music, pictures, programs, etc.) in Firefox, Thunderbird or SeaMonkey applications.

The add-on is also known as FlashGot Mass Downloader among connoisseurs, and it supports numerous download utilities like Aria, cURL, Axel Download Accelerator, Downloader 4 X, GNOME Gwget, FatRat, KDE KGet, JDownloader, SteadyFlow, wxDFast, and Uget.

Being a Mozilla add-on, FlashGot is platform-independent, supporting Linux, Windows and Mac OS X operating systems.
