Tinkertool system 2 serial3/19/2023 Dan Frakes covered Leech as a Mac Gem last week you can read his detailed write-up if you'd like additional information on the program. You can limit the number of concurrent downloads, target files for downloading while offline, tell your Mac to shut down when all downloads are complete, use rules to control where downloads wind up based on certain conditions, and much more. Leech's dock icon serves as a simple progress indicator, with the arrow icon filling in as downloads progress (and a badge shows how many downloads are in progress). Beyond that, though, Leech keeps a fully-searchable (and sortable) history of the files you've downloaded with it, making it easy to find an old download and (among other things) download it again. So if your browser crashes, you don't then have to start all over with a big set of downloads. What does Leech offer that you don't get from your browser's built-in download tools? The biggest issue for me is that downloads are now independent of the browser (once they've begun). But if you download a ton of stuff, you may find Leech quickly becoming an indispensable tool. Leech is really best for those who download a lot of files if you usually only download a couple of files a week, then your browser's built-in tools will probably meet your needs. Then I spent some time using Many Tricks' new lightweight download manager, Leech. I've never been a huge fan of download manager applications - for my needs, I really felt that Firefox plus the Download Statusbar did everything I'd ever need relative to downloads. Price: €9.95 (free trial available €6.95 cross-grade).
