But why do you need one? As i understand it firefox has a built-in "download manager"(ie you can pause your downloads).
Well, the FireFox download manager lets you pause and resume downloads, or retry if download is cancelled.
However, if a download is broken for some reason (as in the case with Magic:The Gathering from the HOTU page for me), all data downloaded so far is lost. So I always have to start the download from scratch, and it always breaks after like half of the download.
I also have the FlashGot plug-in for Firefox, which requires an external download manager.
(The built-in download manager is one of the few things which most firefox users are not happy with, even the most hardcore fans...)
