You can add multiple downloads at once and schedule each one customize various interface settings, such as window position and dialog display and choose a default download folder as well as make a list of favorite folders. The application does provide a number of helpful options for managing and integrating downloads, although these two do not always work as expected. We were able to download the same file using Firefox's built-in utility in a few minutes at speeds hovering around 125 KBps. But when we tried to download a 41MB MP3, the application slowed to a painful 2.2 KBps, even using the application's fastest setting. When targeting the manufacturer's Web site, Download Direct performed admirably, pulling down a 3MB file in 22 seconds. The interface is straightforward and the program offers a number of customizable settings, but in our download tests, the application did not meet expectations. Software that claims to boost the speed of your downloads invariably seems to disappoint, and Download Direct is no exception.
