If the URL you need to download from is busy, just lock Jackhammer onto it
and go back to something better than waiting around. Jackhammer will go after up to five
simultaneous downloads, and you can set the priority level on each one. Jackhammer will
work in the background, to keep trying the site(s) you select -- when it gets through, you
can open new browser window or just automatically download. And if you have a big file
whose download gets interrupted, Jackhammer can pick up where the connection was lost. So,
no more waiting for that certain site to free up, and no starting back at Square One if
your line burps.
Jackhammer will accepts FTP and HTTP URLs -- either type them in or paste from the
clipboard. This program's friendly user interface makes setup and use very easy. There are
not a lot of frills here, but this is the kind of downloader you'll want to pull up when
the files you need are at a specific location & going elsewhere is NOT an option. Its
action is very specific.
It's free to evaluate for 30 days, completely functional, with nag screen. If you've
purchased HotDog Pro, you get Jackhammer for free.
