I got an ipod video this afternoon (fedex delivered it early) so i wanted to get my music collection home to put on it. I zipped up the whole collection but it comes in at 11 gigs and i can only http it to my home computer (no ftp avaliable on my work computer). So I was looking for a download manager because chances are decent that my connection will drop for a second.

So are there any that support big files and resumes?

First of all, can you even access your work computer from the outside?

use getright, don't use flashget, it also installs add into it's program (detected as adaware by many anti-spyware programs)
