Automatic shut down after DL

XabbaRus · 10-02-05, 05:06 PM

Any little progs out there that will shut down your PC for you once the downloads have finished?

I have some stuff going now and don't want to hang round till it has finished to turn off the pc.

I know that some download managers can do it but the only one I have had experience of leaves a lot of spyware so I won't install it.

Help!!!

I'm not sure if it still does it, but I remember using Download Accelerator Plus about 5 or so years ago. It could turn the computer off after the download, but I never used that feature. I think I tried it once to see how it worked, though.

Getright has that feature, but I never use the shut down feature so I can't really advise on how well it works.

Is Getright adware free unlike DABs?

I donÂ´t know about Getright, but Leechget is:

This is the 2004 version, itÂ´s great! It also has a shutdown feature. There is also Leechget 2005, but it doesnÂ´t seem to work with Firefox and FlashGot.

getright is fine if you're looking for a good DL-manager

I have not seen any spyware with it. But it is shareware so you get the occasonal pop up.
