Problem downloading/Flashget/DAP

Hi all U brave Vista users (or just have no choice b/c U bought a new PC
w/Vista installed)

I'm having trouble downloading files. It might because I've been trying to
use download management programs like Flashget and Download Accelerator
Plus. Vista always gave me error messages about not being able to do
something with the default.jdc file (or something like that) and DAP puts a
little window in the upper left of the screen with the URL in it but doesn't
start downloading. How to make the download URL go directly into FlashGet
or DAP so you can just click "Download" in one of those programs and it
starts doing it's thing?

Thanks for any help you can give on this one. It's a frustration 4 me and
I'm surprised noone else has asked about it. As far as I know, Flashget and
DAP don't have Vista versions out yet.

BTW, Incredimail doesn't work too smoothly with Vista either. It's
functional, but every time you go to turn off the annoying butler notifier,
it throws an exception and closes Incredimail.

Re: Problem downloading/Flashget/DAP

I've stopped using incredimail because it downloads viruses to one's hard
drive. Although it doesn't open the attachments automatically, it's not
beyond reason that some bugger might accidentaly do it and then you're
stuffed.
