The only download managers that actually works for resuming files from abandonia is Mozilla Firefox's internal download manager and Opera. You should try that, besides both Opera and Firefox are great browsers, so no loss there

sorry guys, I have to side with Omuletzu. I just started Utopia to download, paused it, restarted it and it worked. However, once i paused the download, killed my dial up connection, reconnected, then tried to continue, it said the file was done. But when opened, it contains too many errors to read. I think the problem was not errors in the file, but there being no file, LOL , I only downloaded 36k before closing. Firefox won't continue the downloads.

As this is abandoneware, why do you need a download manager?
LOL Most of the games on here are less than 5mb... Unless your on dial-up.. hehe :bleh:

What kind of connection speeds do all you guys have. I have 1128Kb/s download but that does not allow me to download 286MB in 6 minutes. I downloaded the Doom3 Demo (490MB) in 90 minutes but that was not at full speed.
