Download GetRight 5.2 beta 3

Headlight Software has released the third beta in the 5.2 series of its download manager GetRight. As befits a good download manager, aborted downloads can be resumed, a file is downloaded from several servers at the same time and the computer can be automatically shut down after downloading. The changelog shows what has changed in this release:

Fixes & Improvements in Beta 3:

• Improved “close with browser” so it recognizes many more web browsers (Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Netcaptor, etc.) Added “Saved To” column for History on Download Status.
• Fixed a rare command line bug.
• Fixed a bug in the IE “Download With GetRight” menu handling that made it send to GetRight but still open the URL too.
• Fixed a little display thing when multiple segments and mirrors were busy–said Pause sometimes instead of Waiting.
• Added so if it can’t remove .GetRight from a file, it sets so it will be removed when you reboot–so will get the name right eventually.
• Skip getting file date from FTP if Norton Internet Security is installed; it incorrectly thinks the message GetRight sends is a Denial of Service attack and stops GetRight.
• Fixed one thing that wasn’t using the new >2GB functions.
• Uses a newer version of the protection system, which hopefully will fix some odd conflicts.
• Changed a few things to hopefully work better for “restricted” user accounts with few privileges to write to folders or the registry. [break] click for a larger version
