Download Accelerator Plus (DAP)
Download Accelerator Plus
Download Accelerator Plus (also referred to as DAP) is a closed source download manager for Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows. It uses multipart download to increase speeds, creating multiple connections of different file segments to speed up downloads - which is useful for defeating file-server download speed limiting. Download Accelerator Plus has 190 million installations worldwide.
Features :
- Scheduled downloading
- Resuming broken downloads
- Integration with anti-virus software
- Integration into major browsers
- Download completion message
- Attempts to play video and audio media during download
DAP works by splitting files into smaller pieces and automatically seeking faster mirrors. It also can get a file simultaneously from several sites, which is useful if a particular site limits the download speed; it can resume downloads; and it can preview some media files while downloading. It speeds-up downloads by almost 200% in most cases and occasionally as high as 400%.
DAP offers file management capabilities by keeping track of all downloads and providing a history of what has been downloaded and when. DAP will additionally recover and resume a download which has been interrupted by a broken connection.
