   :lol: So they removed it. Good deal. Apparently even from the older versions. Back to a 5 then. Good on you, Len0x.

   Still listed as freeware... You guys @ Betanews just not paying attention? Use Gordian Knot. It's free, it's spyware free, and they did all the coding. AGK is just a 'pretty' front-end for it that lost all respect when they started bundling spyware.

   WHERE CAN i FIND ANOTHER PEICE OF SOFTWARE THAT WILL DO THIS FOR FREE AND NOT GIVE ME SPYWARE? UM...GORDIAN KNOT COMES QUICKLY TO MIND. IT'S WHAT AUTOGK IS BASED OFF OF, AND THE GK CREW DID THE WORK, WHY SHOULD THIS TWIT MAKE MONEY OFF OF IT?
   
   Yes, danger from DAE is low. Yes, I read the license. I'm not completely uninformed, as you seem to believe.
   
   Fact remains that spyware is spyware, and packaged with a front-end to a high-quality Open Source product makes it even worse.
   
   So he put a useless piece of spyware in there in an effort to make some money off all his hard work...people seem to be accepting this. What's next? Gonna accept that too?
   
   Sorry, but I have higher standards for software that is based on Open Source.
   
   Regardless of it's quality, usefulness, cost, or lack thereof, it's now reduced to a spyware app.

   Awesome program. Best out there, never seen anything come close for ease of use and reliability. The support is the best, their forum response time and knowledge-base is unbeatable.
   
   It is exceedingly unfortunate, therefore, that they include DAE with it, requiring a score of 1 for packaging adware with a frontend for software that is both freely available and adware-free.
   
   If I were coding Gordian Knot, I would at this moment be searching for legal means to cease the distribution and development of this app until the adware is removed from the install because it could very easily turn people away from the bundle entirely...hurting not only AutoGK, but GK as a whole.
   
   (elMaestro... I couldn't care less that the bundled spyware is relatively harmless...nor do I care that it is plainly stated to be bundled in the agrreement. It is the simple fact that it is included *at all* in a frontend for software that is greatly usefull, free of charge, and malware free. They either need to remove the spyware or rename their product to dis-associate themselves from Gordian Knot completely.)

   Whatever you do, don't stop development because of one comment...please.
   
   I'd nearly kill for a decent free DL manager that has a minimal interface and little configurability if it's fast and small.
   
   Seriously. I'm so sick of bloated software it hurts. All a download manager needs is 4 dl threads, to have it ask where you want to save it, pause/resume, and status. That's it.
   
   It doesn't need to throttle bandwidth, there are 99 other programs that can do that.
   
   It doesn't need to sort them, catalogue them, or anything else.
   
   I don't need a huge window giving me 99 different stats I'll never want to know. Just one small window with a pause button on it, the name of the file, the speed and percentage.
   
   Yours looks like a great start in that direction. Please continue it.
   
   Thanks.

   Heh..
   
   iPhone and Open in the same sentence. Now that is rich.

   The answer to the query is user reviews. FN and DR have a huge following of nutjobs who will do anything to make the objects of their devotion seem more worthy than they are. Move-On and Acorn do the same things.
   
   Ignore the reviews. Ignore the ratings. If the one with access to 145 sites sounds better to you (and it probably should)...why would you let some anonymous fanboy twits make the choice for you?

   Still using a mashup of bing/google. No preference needed, use them both.

    I am beginnging to think whoever is responsible for nming this tech has read/watched just a tad too much Science Fiction.

    Oh, and God help those who were confused by the Windows 7 upgrade charts. This will send them into catatonia.
