      Two Net Questions

      I can't describe in detail at the moment, but:

      1. How can I download gradually, and pause and resume downloads even between shutting off and starting up my computer? (Firefox - doesn't seem to work...)

      2. And how do I do this with Rapidshare for example - and how do I get the direct links to the file(s) for this site?

      Thanks, I'll elaborate later if you need me to.

      1. Use a download manager like FlashGet.
      2. Rapidshare specifically doesn't reveal links to free/anonymous users. You probably should have noticed all the advertising saying "Get a paid premium account and get all the advantages of countless downloads, high speed and the ability to use download managers".

      You could use torrents to download things, this way you use a program to download and can stop and start as and when required.

      +1 for Flashget

      if you use firefox, get the extension Flashgot
      as it integrates FF & FG

      Yep, but you still need to have Flashget installed for Flashgot to work.

      I'd just use a bittorrent client that has an external link download function.

      I assume that this is a PC? I'm almost certain that the newest version of AOL has a download manager that can do that.
