Firefox Add-on: Download Statusbar

When using Firefox, you can have a sense that its download manager sucks. What can one do to resolve this? Install Download Statusbar.

Sitting atop Firefox's statusbar, Download Statusbar is a much, much better way to manage your downloads. Only visible while downloading, this Add-on can open your new download from its containing folder or can completely delete the newly downloaded file from your system. You can also stop downloads and restart them in your next Firefox session or close the browser and keep it (or them) going. My favorite feature is that it doesn't get in your way like Firefox's default downloader.

If you want a better, feature-rich and customizable Add-on that can better your internet downloading sessions, this is a keeper.

To download Download Statusbar from its homepage, click here or here or its listing on the Mozilla Add-ons site.
