Anyone run a virus & spyware check after installation ?

You will probabl find an entry after installation, but it is not functional.
But then if you remove it it will not affect the program.

Flashget is better than IDM in the sense that it has more features, the interface is better and provides a greater controll.
IDM is better in the sense that it integrates very well with opera

^ Not to forget the flashgot plugin with firefox makes u dload directly thru flashget (while using Firefox, even thru sites like rapidshare/megaupload).
